FTR: I'm an artist and I don't crosspost, because I mostly draw for big bangs and challenges and things that are reasonably well advertised. I think you should crosspost to AO3 if you want, it doesn't matter if it's self-serving. Getting feedback and expanding readership is hardly frowned upon in fandom, anyway.
ayrt It didn't even occur to me to use the main post, for some reason. Huh.
You're probably right about posting. I'm just not used to advertising myself, which is what it feels like, and it feels weird to throw fic out there for the sole purpose of garnering readers and feedback. I normally just post to back up my work, and because reviews help give me a kick in the pants to finish my WIPs.

This. All of this. Only I also don't crosspost because I prefer to stay under the radar.
