Douglas Wentworth

Douglas Wentworth's first spec script, Columbo: Murder by Suicide, was purchased by Universal at the personal behest of series star, Peter Falk. His second Columbo script was awarded top honors in a Movie of the Week Screenplay Competition.

His debut novel, Stranded, won the 2012 Independent Publisher Book Awards-Gold Medal in sci-fi/fantasy. Producer Lane Shefter Bishop, of Vast Entertainment, believed the book had very strong potential to be adapted to the screen. The associated screenplay, co-written with David Hogan, was a finalist in the Stage32 4th Annual Sci-Fi/Fantasy Competition and optioned by Broadway’s Kenneth Teaton.

His second book, CarnEvil, was the top-rated horror novel in the 2014 Book Pipeline Competition. As Carnival of Evil, it is now a front-facing story for Radish Fiction’s push into the horror genre. Frank’s first short horror story, The Tower, was the Adult Category Winner of the 2015 Saugus.Net Short Horror Story Contest.

Note: Douglas Wentworth is the pen name of Frank D'Angeli.
