 +''Discord'' is for direct communication between staff (note the Production Coordinator is a moderator). The Production Coordinator will add you to the group. This is not a replacement for the Q&A or the wiki, but a place to talk out more nuanced issues and ideas. This can include but is not limited to:
 +  * Help with how to describe a tricky image. We all get stuck on something! Sometimes it can even be something simple, but our brains get a little stuck. This is a great time to bounce ideas and get suggestions from each other!
 +  * Tips and Tricks on using Word. Learned a new short cut? Feel like a task is taking you too long, and are curious if others have a workaround? Great way to develop skills together!
 +  * Discussing a cool book. Maybe you are working on a really cool book, and you want to share it with the group! 
 +  * Work/Life balance. How to not overthink and take good breaks.

 +<note>Discord is new to the team. We have used other similar platforms in the past, and where not as successful. We are hoping you guys can use this to support one another. If you have an idea for a topic, you can add it to the above list, and to the Discord group. Make it your own!</note>
 +
 +<note>The Production Coordinator will be monitoring the channels to help out when needed, and taking note of anything that would be good to add to the wiki. Please still use the Q&A for your questions about production and the wiki. This is so other PA's can see those answers quickly and easily, and they don't get lost on Discord.</note>
