In terms of screen size on a conventional laptop layout, I used an Acer Netbook with a 10 inch screen every day for 6 years until the hardware finally started getting cranky. Never a problem with the screen.
I currently do much of my writing on a Lenovo chromebook with an 11 inch screen. Still no problems.
My caution would be to consider the keyboard. The Acer had a great "typewriter" style keyboard that was a pleasure to use. The Lenovo has a flatter keyboard, more typical of inexpensive laptops. I occasionally discover that a key I pressed didn't register, so I rely more heavily on spellcheck. And I find myself looking forward to firing up the desktop computer in the evening.
But, no -- the smaller screen size isn't a concern for me.
