Who is Rupi Kaur?

Rupi Kaur is a poet who initially self-published her own poems. She was born in India in 1992 but moved to Canada at a young age. Her work has reached the #1 spot on The New York Times Bestseller List. Her first book was published in 2014.
Kaur designs her own drawings and shares pieces of her poems along with the art. They're often shared on sites like Instagram and Tumblr.
Kaur says that her original plan was to publish individual poems, but they all felt like they belonged together and were really a single poem in many parts. She designed her first book using Createspace. The first test copy she ordered didn't seem right to her, but the second was perfect except for missing the bees on the cover.
Her first book was called Milk and Honey. The second was called The Sun and Her Flowers.
