24 - Betaing - How many betas do you like to use to make sure there aren't any major flaws in your fic? Do you have a Beta horror story or dream story?
I always use a beta for longer stories and occasionally one for short fics if I feel in necessary. I try and make sure I read it myself several times before hand and I usually try and re-read it again a couple of times before posting.
I don't have any horror stories, but I have had to re-write whole chapters as a result of suggestions from a good beta. Painful to do but necessary and I am very grateful that the comments were made.
