As a child, Dr. Shelton knew that he was to become a writer. In second grade, his mother gave hime a notepad and pen for his birthday and was told to write down his thoughts. At 15, he began writing songs as well. His passion for writing grew and his ability to deliver a message via his writings became more than a passion, it became his calling. Dr. Shelton is an author and songrwiter. Understanding the soul from a theological and psychological perspective is a central focus of his authorship. His songs are written from a position of responding to the truth of the revelations of God that are given in nature and the Holy Scriptures.
While our bibliography can serve as a good guide to the sort of material we prefer to publish, it's no secret that at the Shelton Music Company, our eyes are carefully trained to look for works that are thought-provoking, ambitious, and elicit that certain something you simply do not find in a lesser work. Some may say this is vague, but we'd reply that truly top-notch writing can appear in any number of ways – and to limit the scope of our publishing unnecessarily would be a grave misstep.
We strive to celebrate all writers and artists as often as possible, but sadly we simply do not have the ability to publish every single song or manuscript - there isn't a publisher on Earth who can. Please don't take it personally if we are unable to publish your piece ourselves.
