About

Chelsea Lydell is a Deaf author, educator, and language advocate whose work blends storytelling, art, and Deaf culture. Through her creative imprint, ASL Resolutions, she develops books that invite readers to see communication as something felt, not just heard. Her 2025 titles — The Deaf Mainstreamed Peacock, Ryan’s Silent Route, and Forgiving Fiona — each explore the resilience and emotional depth found in moments of silence and human connection.
Drawing from her experience as a teacher and lifelong champion of language access, Chelsea creates stories that help children and families recognize the beauty of signing, empathy, and belonging. She continues to write and illustrate projects that reflect a world where every voice, whether spoken or signed, is valued.
