James Bibby

James Bibby (born 1953 in Birkenhead) is a British fantasy author. He began his writing career in 1980 and wrote for, amongst others, Chris Tarrant and Lenny Henry. He lives in Wirral with his family.
He attended four years at Liverpool John Moores University receiving a degree in Ecology.
A small sketch that Bibby sent in to the BBC was used on Not the Nine O'Clock News (it was based around the well-known Ready-Brek advert and claimed that the warmly-glowing kid in it was radioactive). This resulted in an invitation to join the writing team on Three of a Kind, and then OTT (the adult follow-up to Tiswas). After a fantasy sit-com written for Humphrey Barclay was turned down at the last hurdle by the head of LWT, Bibby turned it into a novel, the first of his fantasy quartet.
Since the turn of the millennium he has been fully occupied in looking after his family. He is now working his fifth book.
