April, I love the Q of the day strategy for low-stakes community building. Thanks for sharing! And "panic pivot" will definitely be part of my COVID-era vocabulary. Indeed.

Glad to hear this is of use! I have learned so much from my colleagues; we really are our best resources.  And may we put "panic pivot" into the 2020 Phrase Dustbin at our soonest opportunity!
