About R C Sims

As a Deaf writer, I’ve always been drawn to the power of storytelling—whether through books, theater, or film. Growing up, I noticed the lack of authentic Deaf representation in literature and entertainment. That realization fueled my passion for writing stories that showcase Deaf characters in meaningful ways.

My first published book explores the life of a Child of Deaf Adults (CODA) from the father’s perspective, a story deeply personal to me. While I have many projects in the works, my mission remains the same: to create stories that reflect the Deaf experience while being engaging for all readers.

My Work & Future Projects

I write across multiple genres, including:
• Young Adult (YA) Fiction – My latest work follows Nolan, a baseball player and CODA, as he struggles with loss and redemption.
• Fantasy – I’m developing a world featuring mermaids and fairies, incorporating Deaf culture in a way never seen before.
• Christian Books – I’m passionate about strengthening Deaf churches and helping Hearing churches understand how to truly support them.
• Children’s Books – I’m working on an educational book series featuring a Deaf teacher and students exploring the world through an interactive smart TV.

Family & Gratitude

Beyond writing, my greatest joy comes from my family. My children inspire me daily, and I’m incredibly grateful for my wife, my number one supporter, who has stood by me through every step of this journey.
