30 Days of Fanfic: Day 24

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 don't, as a rule, use beta-readers at all. When I started writing I did once run a draft past the LJer who'd suggested I write that particular fic, but she didn't suggest changing anything so I haven't repeated the process. Now and again that means a stupid typo has crept into the posted work, but for the most part I think I've got away with it.
