Heather asks, and answers, as does Christine.
So here's my answer: To understand the world around me, and to understand myself.
That's the "deep" answer.
My first, semi-wise-ass answer was "Because I can." And because it's how I make my living (in my other life, that is).
But the very next question I find myself asking is, why haven't I been writing more -- by which I mean, why haven't I been writing more here?
God knows I have had more than a few things crossing my mind to write about... Questions to ask, conundrums to puzzle out... But I haven't been making time for it of late. That other life has been pretty demanding of late, which, when it's the source of my livelihood, probably beats the alternative.
I've been pondering, however, the question of merging my writing identity here with my public writer's identity... erasing the seams between the two.
As yet, no definitive answer. So I'll just keep writing, to see if I might eventually figure it out...
