UPDATE July 18

Thank you Starliters. With the help of our sponsors, we were able to meet the immediate crisis. We have updated the Sponsor Page to show the people who keep this site running for you. As you know we also remove all advertising from their poems. We are working to restructure things to adjust to this new economic climate. Each month will be a challenge for a time. You may be seeing a few more ads on pages here and there. We will start working hard to give back to our sponsors as well.

Hello Starliters,

I am writing you today to ask for your help.

In recent months, the online advertising revenues have reduced drastically. As a result, the Starlite Cafe bank account is in the red. If you enjoy the free services of Starlite, I request your help during this time. Even ten dollars a month can make all the difference. Since my father and I bought the Starlite Cafe, we have not taken a single cent of profit. All the money received has gone toward keeping the doors open for poets around the world to join and share.

So again, please look into your heart and see if you can help us out. Starlite is one of the best poetry sites on the web. We offer services for free that the other sites require premium memberships. We would like to keep our doors open for many years to come.

If you help us out with a subscription or a one time gift, just click HERE. Thanks again for anything you can do.
