I write, design games, draw and help people manage their knowledge and learn collaboratively. \u2014\u00a0Lisandro<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

This is a floating desk. I set it up in the morning to work, and fold it when I am done to prevent me from overworking. Since the beginning of the lockdown I set the goals for the day and when I am done I know I had an honest day of work and I am free to do other things. Workaholism is about guilt not about being engaged.<\/p>\n

What’s in my desk:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Heroclix figures<\/strong><\/a>
\nSome people have their patron saints at their desks, I have mine. But they are from the atomic age era of comics. As patron saints do, they remind me to be a better version of myself. To be more stoic and wise, like the Silver Surfer, or to be more flexible and carefree, like Plastic Man.<\/p>\n

The Vertigo Tarot Deck<\/strong><\/a>
\nOne of the greatest problems of the pandemic lockdown is to have fewer opportunities to talk to people. Especially about the small and more vulnerable stuff. I use this Tarot Deck for the moments when I need a random opinion to establish a better dialogue with myself and rethink what I need or want to do. It is not divination, it is a conversation.<\/p>\n

Midori<\/strong><\/a>
\nI write a lot by hand even though I can\u2019t read most of it afterward. But writing by hand and doodling help me focus and activate my imagination. This Midori with 3 notebooks is a lifesaver for a compulsive writer and doodler like myself. I never run out of pages.<\/p>\n

AG Spalding & Bros Pen<\/strong><\/a>
\nIt was the first gift I bought for myself after and long and difficult period. It gave me the confidence to write again and reminds me how I can go through a lot of hardship without breaking down. It is a beautiful and sturdy pen but runs dry too fast. Or maybe is it me that writes a little too much?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
