Edward Storey (born 1930) is an English writer. He was born at Whittlesey, which was then part of the Isle of Ely in Cambridgeshire, and the Fens have inspired some of his work.

Before becoming a full time writer in the late 1960s, he worked in adult education for the Peterborough City Education Authority. His first volume of poetry (North Bank Night) was published in 1969. In Fen Boy First (1994) he gives an account of his childhood in Whittlesey, and in Fen Country Christmas (1995) he collects a number of stories, legends and fenland superstitions. In one of his earlier works Portrait of the Fen Country (1971) he reflects upon his childhood understanding of the world as it was shaped by his fenland experience.

He has recently moved to Wales.
