Autorenporträt
Heroic is a captivating novel that blends superhero action with an exploration of mental health, following a young Black sword-wielding hero. As he battles dragons, demons, and his own depression, the story highlights the internal and external struggles he faces while growing into his role as a hero. This narrative is not just about fighting external battles but also about the journey of self-discovery and healing from within. Written by Avery Write, Heroic is a project that has been over 15 years in the making, inspired by the author's personal experiences with depression and the desire to create something that could help others struggling with their mental health. The novel explores themes of identity, responsibility, and resilience, offering readers an honest, unflinching look at the challenges faced by young people today. Avery Write is also the creator of Heroic: The Album, which tells the story from the perspective of the protagonist himself. The album complements the novel, providing an immersive experience that brings the hero's journey to life through music and storytelling. Avery Write uses both their novel and music to teach kids about mental health, writing, and the themes of their projects, and is passionate about making these resources accessible to underserved students through book donations. For every paperback purchased through the Heroic Universe website, a copy is donated to a student to help inspire a love for reading and empower young minds.
