I agree, his book Flyy Girl, really got me into reading black authors, when I was about 14 or 15 years old, I'm 24 years old now, wrote my first novel @ 20 and working on something right now, so I know how you feel.

Definitely an inspiration to me. "Just Say No!" is one of my all time favourite boks!

I've been a fan of Omar Tyree since his very first book. He's been an inspiration to me; his story helped me as an African-American man who's also writing books to positively impact my community. I look forward to reading his latest novel and well as encourage others to write their own stories.
