There is a new author in town!  Openyonated.com had the pleasure of helping Markell Thompson celebrate the release of his new book “Thoughts of a Thinker.” We are always excited to congratulate fellow authors into the fold and help them launch out in new endeavors. First things first, I automatically noticed Markell made it a point to greet everyone that attended his event. One might think that it’s common sense to speak to everyone that supports your event, you would be amazed at how many folks don’t.  Kudos to him for having that type of spirit it will definitely take him far! There was great line up of local Chicago artist to help him celebrate the occasion. Kai Love shared a revolutionary piece that gave us a personal account of interacting with unjust law officials something that so many of us have become familiar with. Hood Raised in his  transparency shared part of his personal journey of growth and delivered a powerful piece.  Goddess Warrior shared new knowledge with us from her experience of unplugging from media and plugging into the creator.  Jeronimo shared his life experiences in his own poetic style. Darlin Mikki totally floored me with her performance. In true artist form she used her experience throughout the day as fuel.  I really take my hat off to Markell being so young and new to the scene and at the same time being so focused.  Upon reading some of his book I learned that the place that he is in now is the result of making a change. He made a decision to do something different and the results have not only made him a better person but also a better person for his family.  Make sure you pick up his new book “Thoughts of a Thinker” and add him on social media to keep up with what he’s up to. That’s our 2 cents!! Make sure you add us on social media @MrOpenyonated and like our Facebook Page  https://www.facebook.com/Mr.Openyonated?fref=ts – Openyonayed Fan page
