The Great Adventures of Maha

   We thank Allah who has blessed Pakistan with many talented personalities. One of them is Maha Khan Philips who is the author of top ten novels.  Maha Khan was born in Karachi in 1976. She moved to London in 1994 where she works as a financial journalist.

   She was interested in writing stories from her childhood. She wrote 10 novels and one of them is Mystery of the Aagnee Ruby which she dedicated to her nephews Saif and Taimur. Students of grade six in Beaconhouse School System are reading this book as their core reader. The first novel she had written was ‘Beautiful from this Angle’. When asked about her way of building characters she said, “I ask questions from myself like what does I wear? What does it eat? etc . and I get characters in my mind.” We were very impressed by her answer and we have started using the same way to built characters.
   Unlike a lot of working mothers she is lucky enough to be a freelance writer and journalist. This helps her to manage her home and her family. To us, she is a very talented personality.Written by:Maryam Fatima, Dua Khan, Dua Fatima, Junaid, Yahya.
