I never said I was any good at writing. In fact, I said that I really think my stuff is junk. It's right there in the beginning post. But if people still want advice from me, I'm willing to give it.

And the reason I'm using my own work for examples is I actually wrote it and thus know exactly what's going on in every sentence. Plus, there's a reasonable chance that some people who read these writing lessons by me have also read my fanfic.

It's not all that egotistical. People who write books on style use their own writing as examples all the time. True, they don't often quote their own novels, but that's usually because they don't have any novels published.
