My name is Crystal Stone. I'm a poet currently living and studying in Ames, IA. I'll be traveling on my book tour to celebrate the recent publication of my first collection of poetry, Knock-Off Monarch (Dawn Valley Press, 2018).

Perché sono su Couchsurfing
I love meeting new people. This way of traveling has been a lot more fun than staying at airbnbs alone. Plus traveling is expensive (especially for a poet!). I'm happy to return the favor for travelers in Ames, IA :)
Musica, film e libri
Favorite books: "Hello, the roses," Mei-Mei Bressenbrugge, "Calling a Wolf a Wolf," Kaveh Akbar, "This Crown Ain't Worth Much," Hanif Abdurraqib-Willis, "Still Life with Two Dead Peacocks and a Girl," Diane Seuss, and so so many more.
