What if the fear you inherited wasn’t protection—

but a curse dressed up as love?

Eulogy for the Fear That Raised Me is a fearless, funny, and unflinching journey through superstition, trauma, and recovery. Blending memoir, magical realism, and sharp cultural critique, Anew Mirror drags generational fear to its glitter-covered coffin—and teaches us how to laugh, grieve, and heal along the way.

From knocking on wood to Friday the 13th, from black cats to broken mirrors, each chapter pulls apart the rituals we were taught to obey and asks: What if the real curse was never the superstition, but the fear we carried with it?

Inside, you’ll find:

This isn’t a gentle workbook. It’s a funeral with jokes. A spell with side-eye. A love letter to everyone who was told fear was the price of safety.

If you’ve ever carried family curses, cultural superstitions, or the weight of silence—you’ll find yourself here.

Pull up a chair. Light a candle. The wake is about to begin.
