Dear Neopoet member,

We're thrilled to share that on June 4th from 4 AM Eastern Time to 10 AM Eastern, Neopoet.com will transition to a completely redesigned version of our website—a fresh digital space worthy of the incredible poetry and vibrant community you've built here.

After 19 years of hosting your words, stories, and creative journeys, we're giving our technology platform the upgrade it deserves. This is the first major refresh in 14 years, and the new Neopoet will be faster, more intuitive, and accessible. The new version was rebuilt on modern technology, which will allow faster development (and less maintenance). For example, the new website is finally optimized for mobile devices.

This represents our biggest investment in our technology since Neopoet began, ensuring that our poetry workshop and community will continue to flourish for many years to come. 

We can't wait for you to experience the improved interface and enhanced features that will make sharing, critiquing, and discovering poetry even more enjoyable.

What to expect:

• The site will be temporarily unavailable for up to 6 hours during the transition
• All your poems, comments, and messages (and everything else) will be safely preserved and transferred. Custom profile colors will not be preserved.
• Some features - like the ability to purchase a premium membership - will come back after the second phase of the migration. 
• If there is a delay significantly beyond 10 am Eastern, you'll receive a welcome-back email once everything is ready

Thank you for your patience as we create this exciting new chapter for Neopoet. We can't wait to welcome you home to the new and improved space for your poetry!

With gratitude and anticipation,
The Neopoet Team
