David Mancera Araujo (Cádiz, 1974) es viajero, escritor, aficionado al submarinismo e ingeniero. Actualmente vive en San Fernando, con su pareja y dos gatas que lo despiertan media docena de veces por noche, aunque esto no es demasiado grave, porque tiene el superpoder de quedarse dormido solo con desearlo.
Es autor de la novela corta Los colores del acero (Ediciones Dorna, 2019) y la novela La canción de arena (Obscura Editorial, 2024), y sus relatos pueden encontrarse en diversas antologías, revistas y otras publicaciones.
Fue seleccionado en la convocatoria Visiones 2022, resultó finalista del Domingo Santos 2021 y ha visitado unos 20 países, por lo que aún le faltan otros 175 por conocer.
