I hear that from writers all the time. :-)
My response is always: "Blogging wins you more time and income, not less."
Here's why:
1. You never need to hunt for writing jobs. Your blog lets you target precisely those buyers you want. For example, if you're looking for more web content writing gigs, create a blog targeting Internet marketers and webmasters. Then go to the forums where those people hang out, and drop your blog's URL into your forum signature.
2. Your blog makes you credible as a writer to those who don't know your name. It acts not only as a writing sample, but also as evidence that you're a competent, professional writer.
3. Your blog becomes more valuable over time. The longer your blog is online, the more traffic you get. This means that you get more clients, and with more clients, you can raise your rates when you need to.
Many writers are nervous about raising their writing rates, but you'll soon discover that when you charge appropriately, you attract more and better clients. If your rates are too low, the people who regularly hire writers wonder what's wrong with you -- it sends a powerful signal that you're not professional.
Every writer who's ever taken up blogging discovers how powerful it is.
