kindkit: Ed (Blackbeard) from Our Flag Means Death, touching the red silk that Stede has folded and put in his pocket. (OFMD: Ed red silk)

I'm about 3/4 done with the second draft of the fic, and beginning to think about how I'll post it to AO3. I've never posted anything this long before and I'm wondering what the most reader-friendly (and also, because I'm greedy, comment- and kudos-friendly) way to do it is.

Please feel free to respond even if you don't know/care about this fandom or this particular fic. I'm interested in general reading preferences.

I will note that the fic has a natural break point about halfway through, but there aren't natural/obvious break points for 3, 4, or more pieces.
