William DickersonWilliam Dickerson is a filmmaker and author. His debut feature film "Detour," which he wrote and directed, was hailed as an "Underground Hit" by The Village Voice, an "emotional and psychological roller-coaster ride" by The Examiner, and nothing shor of "authentic" by The New York Times. His award-winning work has been recognized by film festivals across the country. His first book, "No Alternative," was declared, "a sympathetic coming-of-age story deeply embedded in '90s music" by Kirkus Reviews. His second book, "DETOUR: Hollywood: How To Direct a Microbudget Film (or any film, for that matter)," is available now. Midwest Book Review writes: "'DETOUR: Hollywood' is candidly practical, thoroughly 'user friendly', and an essential instruction guide - especially for independent filmmakers working on shoestring budgets." His writing has been published by MovieMaker Magazine, Filmmaker Magazine, Indiewire, The Wrap, Script Magazine, Film Slate Magazine, The Talkhouse, SineScreen Magazine and SaveTheCat.com. His latest novel, "The Dreamachine," is in bookstores now and he recently adapted "No Alternative" into a motion picture starring Michaela Cavazos, Conor Proft, Chloe Levine, Kathryn Erbe and Harry Hamlin.
