My beta reader send me a file with remarks and everithing in a format wich my limited MS word can't read. I didn't admit that this is rhe reason I haven't published a betaed version, I just said that I didn't get around to it. Well, the beta unfollowed my blog and I'm still too lazy to readthis file on someone else's PC.

Yeah, formattnig stuff can be a nightmare. IMO, this is why GoogleDocs is a beta reader's best friend.

I...don't understand why you couldn't just say "thanks for all your hard work, but my program can't read this. Is there another format you could send it in?"

This. I'm not surprised the beta unfollowed the writer. I suspect the beta did a lot of work on that fic and for the writer to just ignore it? With no explanation? "Immature" is the best I can say about that behavior.

The fic was around 500 words. Procrastination and depression I guess is the reason. I don't get around to doing many things.

Procrastination. And then it was too late.
