Nana Sule

Nana Sule is a writer, editor, and cultural curator whose work thrives at the intersection of storytelling, community, and decolonial imagination. Her journey moves fluidly across stories, podcasts, exhibitions, and literary festivals, yet each thread is tied by the same impulse: to build worlds that feel both familiar and startlingly new.

Her fiction and nonfiction have appeared in Agbowo, Isele, Arts-Muse Fair, and others, and she was named one of the three winners of the 2024 Eugenia Abu/SEVHAGE International Prize for Creative Non-Fiction. Her debut collection, Not So Terrible People (Masobe Books, 2025), gathers stories that bend history and memory into unexpected shapes.

Beyond the page, Nana has become a convener of creative spaces. She co-founded The Third Space, a bookstore and literary hub, and curates festivals, book chats, readings, and community conversations that invite collective storytelling and healing. Through Conversations with Nana, her podcast, she continues to spotlight African poetry and craft. Mentored by voices she now walks alongside, and mentoring others in turn, she embodies the cycle of literary community: learning, creating, and giving back. Her journey is not only about the books she writes but the bridges she builds between writers and readers, past and present, self and society.
