Pamela Scott Shelton is a literary agent representing a small but select group of authors and screenwriting talent, including published authors David C. Burton and June Harris, author and screenwriter Randy Reynolds, and author Shaun Jeffrey.
"The people I represent are very talented authors and screenwriters," says Scott Shelton. She adds, "They have the gift to make us laugh, cry, intrigue us and to take our thoughts to farthest reaches of the universe on some of the wildest adventures imaginable, and then back again. That's entertainment."
Scott Shelton says, "Entertainment fulfills a need in the lives of readers and movie goers. I would like to see more people in book stores, and I would like to see Hollywood switch lanes for a while and produce some original action or drama films. Give us a new action hero to cheer. Lately, a lot has been done about important causes and issues, and those things are important, but people need to have fun and to feel entertained. I like it when I come out of a movie theatre and I see people who are still laughing and talking about the movie they just saw."
About writing film and book reviews for American Chronicle Scott Shelton says, "I am glad to be contributing my take on books and films. I have a broad range of interests, and I look forward to sharing those interests with American Chronicle readers."

As spring rains turned to flooding and a late winter cold set in, it was difficult to remember that global warming is the ideological soup de jour.

As fans anxiously await the newest installment of Indiana Jones (2008), thoughts of other great adventure films come to mind. Like Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford), it has been too long since the last Riddick (Vin Diesel) adventure. It is a good time for Hollywood to bring adventure and sci-fi enthus...

An opportunity to see not one, but two of my favorite actors in a film is exciting. That was my anticipation when going to see Mikael Hafstram’s new horror/thriller, 1408.

Oceans 11 (2001) was such a good movie that when Oceans 12 (2004) came out, I ignored the bad reviews and went to see it anyway. Never one to let critics guide my movie going choices it was one of those times when I had to give the critics credit for being right; Oceans 12 fell far short of Oceans ...

As fans eagerly await the release of the new Indiana Jones (2008) film, which will probably be Harrison Ford’s final Jones film; the question must be raised, is it time to give movie goers an altogether new adventure hero?

Today, Hollywood is very outspoken about their politics. The question is, when we know more about a star’s political ideology than we know about their film roles, can they still be entertaining?
