Literary Agent & Founder
Work Directly With Kayla Bramante
Kayla Bramante founded Storyteller Talent Agency to represent career-minded authors across publishing, audio, foreign and translation rights, and film and television opportunities.
Her background in entertainment representation shapes how she evaluates proven authors: not only as one book, but as a broader career, rights, readership, and commercial strategy.

Publishing and rights strategy
Audio, translation, and adaptation opportunities

Who This Is For
Self-published books with meaningful sales, reviews, awards, or reader momentum
Traditionally published authors seeking new representation or broader rights strategy
Authors with an established platform, newsletter, retailer presence, or active readership
Indie authors ready to position a proven book, series, or next project for traditional publishing
What To Send
- A short author bio and publishing history
- Book titles, genres, publication dates, formats, and links
- Sales, awards, review counts, newsletter size, platform metrics, or other traction
- Rights currently controlled by you and rights already licensed
- What you are looking for next: traditional publishing, audio, foreign rights, film/TV, or career representation
From Indie Momentum to Traditional Publishing
A successful self-published book or series can be a powerful signal when the author has clear readership, category fit, commercial upside, and rights still available. Kayla evaluates proven indie authors for strategic representation, including future traditional submissions, audiobook rights, translation rights, and broader intellectual property opportunities.
