Niq Mhlongo (born 10 June 1973) is a South African journalist and novelist. He studied African literature and political studies at the University of the Witwatersrand, gaining a BA in 1996. In 1997 he enrolled to study law there, transferring to the University of Cape Town the following year. In 2000 he discontinued university study to write his first novel, "Dog Eat Dog".
He has been called, "one of the most high-spirited and irreverent new voices of South Africa's post-apartheid literary scene". Mhlongo has presented his work at key African cultural venues, including the Caine Prize Workshop and the Zanzibar International Film Festival, and was a 2008 International Writing Program fellow at the University of Iowa. His work has been translated into Spanish and Italian.
