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.

Brenda S. Miller

Brenda S. Miller writes middle grade and picture books. She grew up in New Mexico, a state that still has a strong pull on her considering she set her first middle grade novel there. In Iowa, she studied English and philosophy and in California, she honed her skills as a professional writer. She has written two full-length books of poetry—ABC* and At the Intersection of Scripture and Normal—and has had poems published in Mid-America Poetry Review and Phoebe, among others.

She is a 2023 Las Musas Hermana with Madrina Kim Baker and a previous mentee in the Latinx in Publishing program with mentor Christina Diaz Gonzalez. She is an active member of the #MGPies writing group and SCBWI and volunteers for WriteGirl. She currently works as a writer at the University of Southern California. One of her favorite things to do is to find typos in the wild. She lives in Los Angeles with her spouse, three book-loving kids, an adventurous cat, a huge dog, and two frogs.
