M.N. Ashraf

M.N. Ashraf is a distinguished Mechanical Engineer with nearly 44 years in the power generation industry, including 39 years in Saudi Arabia. A graduate of MANIT Bhopal and a postgraduate from IIT Dhanbad, he specialized in the operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of gas turbines, with significant tenures at BHEL and the Saudi Electricity Company.

Following retirement, Ashraf discovered his second calling: storytelling. What began as quiet reflection soon turned into a passionate journey of writing, where he masterfully blends wisdom, wit, and wonder into stories spanning memoir, fiction, satire, science, and philosophy. Ashraf’s writing is deeply rooted in human experience. His narratives explore life after retirement, intergenerational bonds, identity, moral choices, and the unseen threads that connect us all. With a tone that is thoughtful yet accessible, his stories often feel hauntingly real—where truth and imagination walk side by side, whispering forgotten truths.
