Nikita Gill, a poet with an Instagram following of more than half a million and a fleet of celebrity followers, including Alanis Morissette, Nicole Richie and Khloé Kardashian, is one of the leading lights of a new breed of ‘Insta poets’ who have revolutionised the way poetry is accessed and enjoyed; opening it up to an entirely new audience through social media. In this episode of It's Complicated she talks to Tanya Goodin about her complicated relationship with social media and her phone; trolling, the surprisingly analogue process of her creativity and the urgent need for more kindness online. (And she reads some of her poetry too!).
