26-year-old writer, actor and poet Ben Norris talks about his creative process and the insecurity of being a millennial trying to make a living from art.

Starting out in an artistic profession is hard enough - it's a precarious business - you can expect rejection letters and knockbacks, and to be working all night to hit deadlines. But taking the next step in your career can be even more challenging.

In this new series we spend time with young artists who are becoming recognised in their professions, as they look to take their career to the next level.

In this edition, we join 26 year old writer, actor and poet Ben Norris as he embarks on making a piece of theatre about long-distance running. While he seeks inspiration he talks about how he creates his work and the insecurity of being a millennial artist.

Producer: Ellie Richold.
