Shalom Shumate

Shalom Shumate is a stay-at-home wife and mother with her husband, and three children, while aspiring to become an author living in East Texas where she was raised. She has many creative hobbies including her writing, art, singing, and her garden. Writing has always been a part of her, gifted to her probably from her mother, and grandfather.  At last, it has become a realized dream! Her end goal is shared with what Dostoyevsky outlined perfectly with his enigmatic remark: “Beauty will save the world.” The rest of her spare time is gratefully, and lovingly spent with her family, and hobbies.
