Here is a some information about the members of the Great Toronto Authors Book Tour:
Jessica Alex: Author of WHAT IF THE WORLD HAD NO COLOUR
Jessica Alex has always had a passion for writing. At the age of 17 she started her own newspaper, but after completing her university studies decided to take the route of book publishing.
As someone who also studied sociology and anthropology she understands the importance of the formative years, and decided to focus on writing books that educate and inspire children and youth.
Her debut children’s book, “What If the World Had No Colour?” deals with issues of racism, bullying and prejudice. Her book has been well received by its readers and has sparked conversation on race and ‘colourism.’ She hopes to continue focusing on using her prowess to reach out to the community, as well as publishing books that will uplift others.

Matthew Taylor: Author of STUDENT OF LIFE: My Life Lessons Are Yours
Matthew L. Taylor is a musician/author/mortgage broker who grew up in Scarborough.
He started writing poetry and playing the piano by the age of 6 winning first place trophies in the process. By the age of 13 he was travelling North America playing soccer and eventually became a champion with the Malvern Hawks. By the age of 16 he grew disengaged at high school and was kicked out.
It was at the age of 18 he then discovered his passion for writing music and over the next few years he started making a name for himself around the city by performing and distributing his recordings.
In his early 20’s he also began reading numerous books and discovered his passion for philosophy, knowledge and literature. He eventually returned to college at age 24.
After graduating, he further educated himself studying entrepreneurship and shortly after his 28th birthday began writing his first published book Student of Life: My Lessons Are Yours which has been embraced by doctors lawyers and students of life from Canada and abroad.
He has gone on to open a mortgage brokering business and also spends time sharing his time and experiences with youth around the city so they don’t make some of the mistakes he made.

Robert Mulolo: Author of WHY ME?
An interesting fact about Robert Mulolo is that he did not know a word of English until the age of 14. Coming from a French Canadian background, he learned English while watching the Fresh Prince of Bel Air. The admiration for the TV Series was what got him started with writing.
He wrote scripts, in English, incorporating a new character on the show hoping to one day give them to TV producers. However, the show’s final episode aired on May 20th, 1996.
Even after the show ended, Robert had become addicted to creating
stories. He continued writing numerous scripts throughout high school. Having transferred from a French school to an English school system, he showed his teachers his writing and was encouraged to change his scripts into books.
It was in his last year of high school (age 18, OAC) that Robert came up with the idea for Why Me?. Prior to having his first novel in print, Robert had the ebook, Valentine’s Day published with XoXo Publishing in 2010 and his second ebook, Holier Than Thou from the same publishing house a few months later.
October 2012 was the year that Why Me? was self-published.
At the moment, Robert Mulolo has recently completed his second novel,
JUST CHANCE IT and is working on a Why Me? play production.
