Buki Papillon was born in Nigeria, lived in the UK where she studied law at University of Hull, and is now settled in the US, where she has learned to find inspiration in the long winters. She has in the past been a travel adviser, events host and chef.
Her debut novel, An Ordinary Wonder, is forthcoming from Dialogue Books (Little, Brown UK) in October 2020. Her work has been published in Post Road Magazine and The Del Sol Review.
She graduated with an MFA in Creative Writing from Lesley University. She has since received fellowships to The Key West Literary Seminars and Vermont Studio Center. She was awarded an Archie D. And Bertha. H. Walker Foundation Scholarship by the Fine Arts Work Center, and is an alumna of the VONA Voices Workshops.
In her downtime she loves taking long rambles in nature, making jewelry, cooking up a storm and, of course, epic levels of reading.
