Ouch, burn! I'll just go stand with my nose against the wall over here...

There's nothing wrong with that (although I myself gave it up years ago).
A bit of context here:
njrick (aka world famous author Rick Marlowe, author of such gems as "An Unappreciative Reader Learns her Lesson" **) was notorious, some years ago, for plugging his own stories, albeit always most charmingly and entertainingly.
I forget why (there's a thread about this somewhere deep in the archives) but one day he announced to a stunned World Readership that he was forever renouncing this practice - a vow he has honoured, more or less, to this day.
Self-plugging is a normal, safe and natural part of growing up here in the Library, and nothing to be ashamed of. Practised in moderation, it has no harmful effects on health.
(** Did you see what I did there?)
