Professor. Fiction Writer. Scholar.

As noted in The Review of Contemporary Fiction, Aimee Parkison has “garnered both critical praise and prestigious awards.” A prolific writer with an impressive range, her work has been published widely with over one hundred works in journals, in print and online, in translation in Italian, and in anthologies such as The Best Small Fictions. With ten books of fiction published by university presses and prestigious independent presses (including six monographs, two collaborative collections, and two chapbooks), Parkison has just completed her eleventh book.
 
Parkison earned an MFA in Fiction Writing from Cornell University and is a Professor of Creative Writing in the English Department at Oklahoma State University. Her work has won numerous national awards and fellowships, including a Christopher Isherwood Fellowship, the Catherine Doctorow Innovative Fiction Prize from Fiction Collective Two, the Kurt Vonnegut Prize from North American Review (the oldest literary journal in the US), the Starcherone Prize for Innovative Fiction, the Jack Dyer Prize, a North Carolina Arts Council Fellowship, a Writers at Work Fellowship, a prize from Fiction International, a Puffin Foundation Fellowship, a William Faulkner Literary Competition Award for the Novel, and an American Antiquarian Society William Randolph Hearst Creative Artists Fellowship.
