About me - James Mongold

About me

I'm a modestly published writer with theatrical writing in my background in addition to a handful of short stories.

I live in southern California with my amazing wife, my infant son, and our dog Lennon.

I'm a film fanatic, and am obsessed with eating pizza and spider rolls (not in that order necessarily).

Briefly me

My passion is ...

My family, and film.

I know too much about ...

The baggage retrieval system at Heathrow.

My parents always told me ...

Boy, get out there and crush them beer cans.

My childhood ambition ...

To be either Indiana Jones or James Bond, preferably Indy.

My favorite memory ...

is of my grandfather.

Why I write ...

There aren't many things in life that are both torturous and fun at the same time.

What I am reading/watching/listening to ...

Currently reading "The Screenwriter's Bible," currently watching "The Benny Hill" collection, currently listening to "Led Zeppelin III"

My first job ...

I was a boxboy/ clerk at Woolworth's.

My best moment ...

The anticipation backstage on opening night of the first play I wrote with my brother.

My inspiration ...

My wife, my son, and underdogs rising to the top.
