About Us

Jack Wild Publishing was founded by three brothers: Christopher Poindexter, Thomas Poindexter, and Devin Poindexter.

Our Story

Our aim here consists of many layers and aspirations. The name "Jack Wild" comes from the first name of our late Grandfather who was the main father figure in our lives. The term "wild" comes from the love of nature, the desire to adventure and explore, and to be wildly passionate while doing so.

What we hope to provide and accomplish with this publishing company is not only producing art we believe in, art we believe that has something special to say, but to give people the opportunity and stepping stones to achieve their artistic dreams. To give them tools to create their own vision and to seek out that vision honestly and genuinely.

We are three individuals very plagued by the idea of a normal life. By the mundane dance. If we aren't dreaming bigger and bigger each day, each and every day trying to be better and do more, than what are we really doing? This is what we are really about. Pushing our dreams and allowing others to push theirs.

Prison or Passion

The book also encompasses grand moments in life: falling in love, healing through transparency, football triumphs, the simple pleasure of waking up next to the one you love. R.K. Russell recaptures the subtle cries of a young boy and the creation into the man that would have protected him, ensuring that his words will become your personal creed—and will call you to protect the young and innocent.

Mediocre Sunflower

Mediocre Sunflower is not a special book and it never claims to be. It is raw and remains unedited.

From the first page, Mediocre Sunflower straps you into a bohemian rollercoaster that catapults you through a museum of your own experience.
