Posting currently-unfinished fic on AO3: bad idea or seriously bad idea?

(It's going to be short! I am just too damn tired to write it now!)

I have this to do list, okay, and responding to comments on here is right at the top and I am *sorry* but it is under the marking, and the marking currently conquers all.

Apart from writing. Writing is the priority of all priorities. Last week was a 100 word a day challenge. This week is a 500 words a day challenge. I think I have made 9000-some words in just over a week? I have no idea if I will keep it up but. Pleased.

That's amazing! *admires*

Whoa, that is more words in a week than I've made almost ever! *IMPRESSED* I am a notoriously slow writer, but still, dude. That's fabulous.

And as for the fic -- do you mean posting it when it's finished? GOOD IDEA GOOD IDEA. :DDDD (I don't even know what the fic is, but on general principles!) If you mean posting it while it's still unfinished as a WIP to post the end of at a future date, then that is totally up to whether you'd find that a useful motivator or stressful. It wouldn't work at all for me, because for me the hard slog is finishing the underlying story and then tweaking it all into shape with a lot of minor wording edits is fun and easier and something I do to the whole story at once, but other people find it useful and workable, so whatever suits you.
