I got this message this morning:
Hi There!
I just wanted to send you a quick note on behalf of some of the students in our After School Program! We've been using your page ( http://fraternityofshadows.com/TheBalcony.html ) quite a bit while going over different styles of poetry and famous poets, it has been super helpful
As a 'Thank You', a couple of the kids also found and wanted to pass along this page all about the life and work of Edgar Allan Poe: ( http://www.datehookup.com/content-an-ed ... an-poe.htm )
We've actually been using it just as much as your page and thought that maybe you would want to include it on your Balcony Resource page! I was hesitant to email you at first but the group keeps asking if I've talked to you about it yet! haha
Would you possibly consider adding it for them? I would love to surprise and show them before we finish the unit this Friday, that their research find has actually benefited someone else! They would be so excited!...and I may even surprise them with a pizza party
Thanks again!

And Ron quickly added the link online, and my reply to her:
Hello Joane,
We are thrilled by your work, and you can let the kids know it is already

Have a good end of school year from everybody at the FoS!

Guys, we attract schools teachers, I believe we are not evil enough!
Seriously, it's not the first time we have that kind of message, last year it was about a school project on pirates.
Just to let you all know the Balcony page is a now good reference page.
Let us know if you see other things to add to it!

Not evil enough? We are infecting the youth and generations of the future! what could be more diabolical!
Re: We are not evil enough? ;)
Very cool! Just goes to show that Ravenloft can inspire well beyond its original audiences!

Re: We are not evil enough? ;)
Last week, hoping to get in a Ravenloft Game that wouldn't happen (the responsible parties for that know which they are!) I bought two Ravenloft novels. One had a reference to the FoS.
The Reviews for them had FoS in the first 4-5 results. And when I say 4-5, I don't mean 4th. IIRC one of the two had FoS just after the amazon reviews.

Minor thread hijack--I just did a Google search for "Ravenloft" and discovered that the FoS site is now second, after the Wikipedia article. We have supplanted Secrets of the Kargatane at last.

What about a teacher doesn't scream evil? Surely we've cursed our share! This is indeed good news, I always dream of the setting getting some legs and turning into something a little more mainstream. The I, Strahd movie....sigh.

Why do they just hang out on the balcony? Invite the in to the FoS proper!
