Don't worry too much.  I had the same worry because although I do use
the time tracking (GTD) feature of org extensively, the majority of the
time I am using org is for writing.  Although there are some changes you
will need to make to your documents, the number of changes will depend
on the export target(s) and your use of figures and tables, say.  Others
in this thread have already pointed you to the docs that are available.

You don't actually say what the export target(s) you use is/are.  In my
case, most of my export to latex/pdf documents required minimal changes
and only to figure attributes basically.  My beamer slides required more
significant changes but, even here, the impact was much less dramatic
than I had expected and worried about!  And, quite importantly, the
beamer exporter is now more logical, in my opinion.

Don't panic (TM)! ;-)
