I received a nice reaction.

I received this nice reaction from Anushka Nair
I always love to meet people who are as much interested
in the Bronte Sisters as I am
Anushka, I wish you a lot of succes and pleasure with your weblog
I know how much knowledge and fun it will give to you
And I am certainly going to follow it!

This is amazing. I have been keeping myself updated on this blog for years - I learned a lot about the Bronte sisters here. I haven't had the chance to say how fascinating all of this is. And it's really, really hard to find any fanbase or community dedicated to the Bronte sisters, especially one that focuses on the minute details of their life!

I've started a web-blog on the Bronte sisters, too. My blog also focuses on the Bronte fan community, in addition to the the Bronte family's lives. It is at whatsupwithbrontemania.wordpress.com. I would love if you could check it out, as I'm just starting! My guiding question for this blog is - what drives the strange obsession with these Victorian-era-Yorkshire-countryside trio of authors?

This is a wonderful blog. Keep writing!! :)
