Meet Omari Bonner
Meet Omari Bonner Born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, I have always had a way with words. At an early age, I had developed a love for reading and writing. This carried over to my teen and early adult years, and I ended up using my talent to write music. My music was special to me because it allowed me to express myself, and put my energy and life experiences into my music. After a brief stint in the music industry, I thought about how I could continue to use words as expressing myself, so I thought about writing a book. At the time, my mother was battling a gambling addiction at the same time she was diagnosed with cancer. I sat and brainstormed about the situation and came up with the idea to write about it. My first book, Lord Please Make It Stop, was the way I dealt with everything that was going on.
