I'm happy to see some experimentation with form. As far as I'm concerned it depends on how satisfying the pieces are. If they really are self-contained episodes in a larger arc, then that's fine.
Isn't this more-or-less what happened with Wool, and wasn't The Martian also originally published in small chunks?
It gives authors a chance to test the waters before committing to a long novel. And readers too.
