So, I asked this question on Twitter earlier today and got some fabulous responses.

I don't think I have to say something new here because most of my reasons were mentioned already

Sorry to be taking so long to get back to you. LJ was so very wonky.

Just wanted to say, yes yes yes to the creative outlet and wanting to make other people happy. Yes! I love to create things as a means of expression, but when someone else gets excited about something I've made (be that a story, some food, or a quilt) it really makes my heart sing too!
