We had to make some changes to what is allowed when entering your first and last name on PoetrySoup. Because of upcoming enhancements, we can only allow letters, numbers, and a couple special characters (dashes, spaces, and periods) in the last name and first name fields. Thanks for your cooperation.

The changes we are making are global changes that will help PoetrySoup. Certain characters and formats of names are causing technical issues, so we have to fix ALL names. It’s nothing personal. All Soupers are affected.
