I've heard and read from many vlogger and blogger authors that an aspiring writer should have his own webpage as early as possible. Being published or not doesn't come to it.

Now, if I created a webpage for myself, I assume I need to post my writings on it. Do my posts need to be periodical, or at least regular? What if I'm occupied with my current book and don't have the brains to write on various topics periodically just to establish a presence? And isn't that just blogging?

Not take away from any bloggers, but it isn't what I like to do. Blogging to me is very similar to journalism, which I consider a soul-draining occupation and sits at the opposite end of the writing spectrum from fiction writing.

**Disclaimer**

My only audience so far is family and friends.
