Back in the day of my first fics, I posted as I wrote. (there's still one that I'm doing that way)
At the time, I think I was eager for any kind of feedback. Now, I prefer to hold off on the posting on multi-chapter stories or stick to one chapter stories that have an ending but could be continued.
I found it better to do that than to get to writer's block and then get the "are you ever going to finish" reviews. Of course, if you go this route, I suggest still posting over time even if it is complete instead of posting the whole chunk at once. This gets you a wider audience.
PS: beta'ed fic got delayed one more night... work spilled over...
