Heroic: The Multimedia Experience Redefining Mental Health Advocacy Through Hip-Hop

S For Story/10645503
HILO, Hawaii - s4story -- Heroic, a groundbreaking project by author, rapper, and mental health advocate Avery Write, is rewriting storytelling by merging hip-hop, mental health advocacy, and diverse representation. The novel and accompanying album tell the powerful story of a young Black superhero battling depression while navigating a world that silences heroes like him.

Through Heroic, Avery aims to amplify underrepresented voices, spark conversations about mental health, and foster literacy. For every copy sold, a copy is donated to schools prioritizing equity, with a goal to donate 300 books by January 7, 2024. Heroic has already earned high praise, with a Reedsy Editor review calling it a "must-read 🏆—an engaging, action-filled fantasy that encourages hope in a harsh world that outlaws heroes and encourages evil."

"My goal with Heroic is to create the kind of story I needed as a teen," said Avery. "I want teens to feel seen, empowered, and capable of overcoming challenges." Combining 15+ years as a rapper and poet, Avery has crafted a multi-layered experience. The novel immerses readers in a richly imagined world, while the album brings it to life through compelling lyrics and beats.

Educators are already praising Heroic for its ability to engage students and spark meaningful discussions. One 6th-grade teacher shared: "My students absolutely loved Heroic! The unique chapters led to discussions about plot, perspective, theme, dystopian societies, and more. I seriously had to tell kids NOT to read ahead!"
