'''Shubhada Sharad Gogate''' ({{lang-mr|शुभदा शरद गोगटे}}), born 2 September 1943 as Pushpa Ranade ({{lang-mr|- पुष्पा रानडे}}), is a [[Marathi language|Marathi]] author from [[Maharashtra]], [[India]].<br />
<br />
==Biography==<br />
Shubhada Gogate is the daughter of Dinkar Damodar Ranade and Sarojini Dinkar Ranade of Nasik. As a child, she was a voracious reader of Marathi- and English-language books, magazines and circulars, and wrote many short stories. She completed her B.Sc. in chemistry in [[Nasik]] in 1962 and worked as a school teacher for a few years. <br />
<br />
She married [[Sharad Gogate]] in 1966, who was in the book-selling field and later published books. As a bookseller and publisher’s wife with a keen interest in her husband’s work, she soon learned the trade of making and selling books.<br />
<br />
Gogate began writing professionally in 1981 and her first novel ''Yantrayani'' ({{lang-mr|यन्त्रायणी}}) was published in 1983. It was published first in two parts in the monthly magazine ''Naval'', then later in book form. This novel went on to win the government of Maharashtra’s award for best novel in the [[Science Fiction]] category.<br />
<br />
Gogate's novel ''Khandalyachya Ghatasaathi'' ({{lang-mr|खन्डाळ्याच्या घाटासाठी}}), a historical novel based on the construction and then extension of the first railway line in India, was published in 1992. This was a very different genre her previous work, involving a great deal of research into the historical information. It went on to win the Best Novel award from [[Marathi Sahitya Parishad]] as well as the Mrinmayi puraskar given by the well-known Marathi writer G.N. Dandekar.<br />
<br />
In 1993, Gogate's story "Birthright" was included in the science fiction anthology ''It Happened Tomorrow'', published by the National Book Trust of India. The book included 19 stories that were translated into English from various Indian languages.<br />
