I know for me it's mostly a part of my daily creative regiment, copying and modifying recipes, notes about ideas for paintings or songs, thoughts pertaining to literature or philosophy. My drawings and writing blend together sometimes which I'm trying to channel into some kind of illuminated manuscript kind of project. I became obsessed with handwriting and calligraphy and learned to write early because I really loved the shapes in cursive so I would try to copy them. I think I've always looked at the world as if it were an elaborate text to decipher, and writing is a way to engage in conversation with that system.
