About the author
Alexander Khan
15 books20 followersAlexander Khan is a British-born writer, former British soldier, and passionate storyteller whose memoirs delve into the raw terrain of identity, loss, and the long road to healing. Born in Scotland to a Pakistani father and an English mother, his early life was marked by displacement, cultural conflict, and the silent struggle of living between two worlds.

Now based in Hampshire with his wife and son, Alexander divides his time between writing, public speaking, and advocacy. A qualified skydiver with over 3,000 jumps and an avid fisherman, he has been featured in Soldier magazine and has shared his story across international platforms, including BBC World Service, BBC Radio 5 Live, and the BBC Asian Network, as well as numerous podcasts.
Alexander remains committed to telling stories that challenge assumptions, spark conversation, and explore what it means to belong.
