An excellent point. Blogging and maintaining a sufficiently interesting online presence is such hard work that it should by all fairness be considered a real job -- part time or in some cases full time.
Yes -- or a hobby, which is something you do for fun, but something you don't expect to make money doing. I think if you looked at it as a job, it might be easier -- but while writing novels and meeting deadlines, you've already got one. Imho.
I don't know -- I just resent the stress it places on writers whose work I admire.
