Big chapter dump or space it out?

Letters And Numbers:
Hey, just wondering if people have an opinion on what the best way to build engagement with your stories is — post a long, multi chapter story in a single batch, or space it out over a longer period of time.

The one I’m working on now is about 60,000 words, so approaching novel length. I’ve been posting 4 or 5 chapters a week, trying to stop on cliffhangers or interesting places, but that doesn’t seem to be doing the trick.

I’m not finished with it, I probably have another 10-20,000 words to write, but I wouldn’t be opposed to releasing a big chunk if that got people interested.

Also open to the possibility that my story is just not engaging 😅

Munchies:
I am very curious as to how many views you expect to have after only being here a week.


It’s not total views as much, because that takes into account bots and scrapers, it’s engagement. But even going by views, is 1 comment for 3500 views good engagement or would it be better if I changed the posting schedule? Does that make sense? What do other authors find works best

Maybe it’s me being dumb (likely), but I can’t change my password through My Account. The screen hangs and the new password doesn’t take. I’ve tried in chrome and Firefox.
