BIO
Arlis Mongold is a U.S. expat currently living in Lima, Peru, with his wife and two black cats. He has a history of playwriting, cartooning, and holding down terrible jobs while toiling on his hobbies in the dark of night. Gravitating towards several genres like an ADHD-riddled moth to a river of lights, Arlis has written two features, two shorts, and a pilot that he'd be happy for you to read.
