Our Story

Boston-based writer, artist, and librarian Meia Geddes founded Poetose. She loves discovering new artists, writers, and entrepreneurs, and enjoys applying her experience in the world of books to bringing others' voices to the world.

Poetose began as a sole proprietorship in 2016 when Meia published her own two books, Love Letters to the World and The Little Queen — illustrated by artist Sara Zieve Miller — under the imprint. Poetose has since expanded, publishing many others both online and in print, and incorporated as an LLC in 2024. 

Poetose is a traditional press in that we pay an advance and royalties for chapbooks and books we publish, and cover all costs associated with publication.

Some things Meia loves: beauty, lyricism, the miniature, animals, birds, trees and the natural world, anything bookish including books about books, hybrid works, authenticity, a sense of humor, and projects that come from a place of love.

In working with writers and artists, Meia values close collaboration to ensure the birthing of something beautiful.
