J.S. Matkowski

Founded by J.S. Matkowski in 2025, Poetic Paupers is not just a publishing cooperative—it’s a rebellion. A sanctuary. A megaphone for the voices that don’t fit, won’t comply, and refuse to be silenced. We’re here for the wounded and the wild—those clawing their way out of the dark with nothing but a pen and raw, unrelenting truth. This is where the untold stories live—the messy, unpolished, too-real-for-prime-time narratives that ignite change and light a fire in the soul.
