Photographer turned poet turned essayist turned overall annoyance, Stone (they/them) explores themes of sobriety, queerness, and self love. Their works appear in publications such as Gnashing Teeth, Red Rose Thorns Journal, and have been featured on Button Poetry. Currently, they are editor in chief of Retrograde Review, an online zine dedicated to change.  They reside in Denver, but you can find them online @stonewroteapoem or @persephone_stone but you can also probably find them wherever Taylor Swift is playing, wherever there are good mocktails, or wherever there are disco balls
