Mohsen Ashraf

Hi, my name's Mohsen. I'm a writer and recovering corporate executive who's deeply passionate about all things mythic and fantasy, probably because I grew up consuming way too much of it: Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Vikings, Clash of the Titans, and One Thousand and One Nights, just to name a few.

I also grew up across continents with unrestricted access to The History Channel, so I've always been curious about how different cultures interacted with and evolved from one another, particularly the ancient cradles of civilization: Egypt, Arabia, and the Aegean.

That love of history and archaeology got a mythology infusion in college when I wandered into a class on Scandinavian Religion, and had my mind blown by how connected myths, faiths, and history actually were. Myth, I realized, isn't just story, it's how humanity has always tried to make sense of the divine.

That fueled a lifelong obsession to unravel these mysteries, which I started with Syphon, my first story about a supernatural empath that was nominated for Best Series and won Favorite Hero with the Ringo Awards.

Eventually, all my passions led me to an even more ambitious story I've spent years developing, Pantheon Myths, which explores how myths and gods have evolved across cultures over the centuries, starting with Norse, Greek, and Mesopotamian.

It's truly a labor of love, built on a borderline unhealthy amount of research, and I'm so excited to share it with you.
