Yes, this totally counts as writing! Actually, I often find that writing blog posts is a really good warm-up for writing fiction, essays or other more daunting things. And I really like reading your posts, so at least you are entertaining people with what you write, although I can understand if you'd rather be writing something different.
I can totally sympathize with your frustration; I've had writers' block lately and it really sucks and messes with my sense of self. I keep trying not to put pressure on myself, but at the same time there's that little voice saying 'but if you're not writing, you're not a writer!' I really think every little bit -- blog posts, scraps of stuff, things you might not think are any good -- does help keep it going.
