Guest Alchemist: Jenna St. John
Mini-interview with the writer of When Wendy Grew Up, a movie script produced in audio by the Table Read podcast

Meet Guest Alchemist, Jenna St. John
Jenna and I met through mutual friends when we both lived in DC many years ago, and as fate seems to have decided, we both ended up here in Los Angeles. She has transformed her career over the years from computer science to English and creative writing, and even spent time as a ballet dancer before an injury led her to focus on screenwriting full-time.
One of Jenna’s feature-length scripts, When Wendy Grew Up, was recently selected for production by the Table Read podcast, which is sort of like a contemporary version of the old genre of radio show fiction. The script is read by professional actors sitting in a room together around a big table, and produced with professional sound effects. It’s so much fun to listen to and I’m thrilled to have Jenna here as Guest Alchemist today to share some of the story behind the story.
Enjoy this short interview!
