My blogger friend Mitch has this question on his post on his blog.
We exchanged comment and response as follows. Please click on the image to enlarge it for easier reading.
Naturally, I am interested now to find out why my readers with their own blogs blog!
Why do you blog?
The subtitle of my blog is “Life as a shared adventure.” That pretty much sums it up — we get to share our adventures with one another.

Yes, the two of you seem to have found the right formula.
I started specifically to reconnect with an old friend who ironically no longer blogs. Joining the LBC and having a weekly topic was the discipline I needed. Plus, at the time I started I was going through a very difficult period of caregiving for my late wife and I needed a release from some of the anguish. Making some new blogger friends helped immensely and I have enjoyed the debate and camaraderies that has followed.
I am sure that the mutual friend will return to the blog world. In the meanwhile, let us enjoy the ride and keep the engine warm for him.

Nice invention Nandu.
Being anonymous (not everyone but most) it gives me free reign to write about anything my wee heart desires. Which I do. I’ve also been so lucky to meet with kindred spirits, both on line and in the flesh.
I can’t speak highly enough of blogging.

I know exactly what you mean and your posts are really amazing pieces of writing.
Why do I blog? Maybe it’s because I have so much to say and not enough people to listen. The perks are great, too. Self-expression. Virtual friends. Endless ways to tinker.

That is the universal problem of all creative souls and blogging offers a way out.
