  • Weekly Critiques: Each week, the client emails their coach what they've written, and the coach serves as a Critique Partner by providing them with a thorough analysis.
  • Social Media Management: Bayou Daydreamer creates a new email address for the author and uses it to create an author Instagram account. The account is updated with three posts weekly that are designed to attract the attention of the author's fanbase and include videos, text, and interactive media.
