Post as chapters, or seperate entries in a series

[(Anonymous)]

I've got a fic that consists of several mostly self-contained entries about the same set of characters, set in sequence over a period of ~two years. Several of these scenes are shippy and explicit (although varying in tone), and a couple others are friendship-related/not explicit.

I consider the arc to be one story. But do I post it as one long story, with each segment as a chapter, or do I create a "series" where each is posted as an individual story? I feel like I'd get more hits/attention if it's a series, and that that's the way more typically taken by other authors in the fandom. Maybe it's that I haven't written fic in many years, but back then it was all about chapters.

Advice?

Re: Post as chapters, or seperate entries in a series

People like both. If the entries are really very separate (i.e: part one takes place when they first met, part two two years later, etc.) then do it as a series. If it's fairly chronological, do it as chapters. A series with a lot of parts is fine, but tons of people are just as excited about a multi-chaptered fic with lots of chapters.
