Demetrious Polychron,
President
Demetrious’ writing career has
so far included over 175 finished poems, many of which have won awards, but
none of which has made a single dollar; three paid but uncredited writing
positions on three unproduced feature film scripts; a stint writing for Genre
Magazine for which he got pay, credit, and national exposure; and two spec
scripts.
His first spec script,
The
Unknown Actor, which broke to semi-finals in the Slamdance Screenwriting
Competition is destined for all the 2007 competitions. Demetrious moderates
the A-to-Z
Script SIG and is hard at work on his third spec script, The Four
Horsemen.
