Storm Literary Agency

Boutique literary agency representing quality literature from exceptional authors and illustrators

First, there was a  teacher who loved books almost as much as she loved little children. Then, there was an artist who loved pirates, almost as much as he loved cats. As it turns out, that artist could also write, and that teacher loved the pirate stories he wrote. And she shared those stories with the children she taught. The children loved the pirate stories; they also loved the cats. They wanted more stories with pirates and cats. They also wanted an adventure. And the stories gave them so many adventures. And that is that: Storm Literary Agency came about because it needed to. The children requested it. And so did the cats. 

Storm Literary Agency welcomes submissions from unique and talented authors and illustrators, those who are not afraid to embrace their capacity to teach, to entertain, to engage and to honor people, young and old, who hopefully, will be changed by the work represented here.

When Bibi finally realised she wanted to write and illustrate picture books, she found she already had sketchbooks full of ideas. She has always needed to reimagine emotions and relationships as knowable creatures and tangible objects to understand them. It turned out that was just what she needed for her stories.

Bibi has completed Make Art that Sells Illustrating Children's Books courses, the Curtis Brown Picture Book course, and two StoryCampDisco residencies. 

She is a member of SCBWI British Isles and Write Mentor, and was selected as a WriteMentor Summer Mentee in 2022.

Bibi is British Tamil, disabled, and autistic. She writes and illustrates from her home in Manchester, UK, and has a PhD in biological sciences. Although she has left the lab, she continues to explore the wonders of biology through her stories, and works part-time in mental health research. She keeps a list of every rainbow she sees, and her favourite feeling is awe.
