Wallace Peeples, activist-influencer otherwise known as Wallo267, has memoir out in September
NEW YORK (AP) — Wallace Peeples has lived many lives — activist, speechmaker, podcaster, social media influencer — since serving 20 years in prison. And he plans to write about all of them. 13a, an imprint of Gallery Books, announced Tuesday that it has signed up Peeples, best known as Wallo267, for his memoir “Armed With Good Intentions.” 13a is calling the book a “story of survival.” Peeples, who at age 17 was convicted of armed robbery and sentenced to 20 years, was released in 2017 and soon expanded the online presence he established in prison. His book comes out Sept. 10.
