My name is Jonny Eberle. I’m a writer, filmmaker and photographer. I live in Tacoma, WA in a 110-year-old house with my wife, our puppy and three adorable typewriters.
My short stories Bad Air and Bitter Herbs, How to Steal Copper Wire, The Disappeared, Inheritance, The Cannibals of Kitsap and The Observable Universe have been published by Creative Colloquy and Grit City Magazine. I’m currently working on several more short stories and the manuscript of a science fiction novel. See my publications.
I’m passionate about storytelling in all its forms, whether it’s through the written word, films, or photographs. I’ve even tried my hand at penning a full-length stage play. I’m a graduate of Northern Arizona University, where I studied Journalism and Political Science, I have a certificate in Strategic Communications and Public Relations from Portland State University and I’m the founder of Obscure Studios, an independent film studio. I’ve been blogging on this site since 2011.
In addition to my creative pursuits, I also love to travel. I’ve been privileged to visit some of the most beautiful places on earth, from the marble steps of the Parthenon to the Guatemalan village of Pachaj to the windswept fjords of Patagonia. Read my travel writing.
I’m also a freelance copywriter and content strategist. I’m available for hire to help your business or nonprofit generate more sales, gain media attention, inspire donors, and establish thought-leadership in your industry through marketing copy that tells a compelling story.

Remember…. When in doubt pinky out!
The “Freshly Pressed” page is interesting. Some blogs are expressions and views of a persons’ life. Some do something for you and others do not. For me, finding a page like this is why it exists.
There are so many places in the world like Guatamala that you visit once and it tugs at your heart in such a way you will never forget. For me, it is areas of Brazil. To see a place where the people are so warm yet the country has so many problems is almost overwhelming. On one drive, after seeing miles of some of the poorest homes, I thought to myself that if you were to become president of the country-how could you correct this all? It was almost to much.
Well, I am glad someone wants to give a voice to people that are overlooked. Good luck!
This also highlights why traveling is so important. If you never see it or you are on a cruise ship and only visit the port areas, then you will never understand the rest of the world.
My thoughts exactly. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you keep traveling — it’s the only way to know that there’s a world out there in need of change.
Nice and interesting blog 🙂
Thank you for taking the time to read. I hope you’ll be back.
