Author Info


"That's What My Mother Said!" is Wallace's first book which is quickly gaining interest with book enthusiast across the country he hails from Miami Florida but has his roots are steeped in the old timey ways which came from his mother who had her roots deep in the heart of Georgia her stories which is the driving force that propelled him to try his hand at writing this book. 

He has a unique and clever way of storytelling which has it's inspiration coming from a long line of storytellers, and has a way of drawing the reader into the book themselves, it will take them on a journey full of life's lessons and wisdom that speaks to our thoughts and struggles which black people experience on a daily basis. The book has a series of short stories that will take reader's on a journey which contains special teachings and lessons that is apart of our culture but may not be known to other's. It was used to help guide them through life's everyday obstacles and challenges that is unique to that of the African-American experience. Individuals of different cultural persuasions will be intrigued by the stories told and will gain a special perception, insight and view our people placing them in a different light. 

It also inspires, motivates and provides thought provoking messages that has real value and meaning that is relatable to all and will cause them to look deep inside to explore and challenge long held on to negative beliefs that can make for a positive change. 

Although my target audience would be that primarily for women, I think readers should know that just because there is a image of black woman on the books cover, by no means does it's contents pertain to just black people in general, but it's messages will resonate with all genders, ages and cultural persuasions and consist of a wide range of topics that is inherently vital to us all.
