Dave Jarecki

Dave Jarecki is the grandson of northeastern Pennsylvanian coalminers, and feels their work in his blood sometimes. He’s been writing professionally since 1998, including articles, profiles, non-profit grants and marketing communications.

In 2004 he founded Breakerboy Communications, a strategic writing and messaging service that focuses on the communications needs of small businesses and non-profit organizations. Jarecki also facilitates youth and adult creative writing workshops and independent studies throughout the Greater Portland area. His creative work has appeared in Voices of Central Pennsylvania, IN/UR Magazine, BaseballSavvy.com, Poet’s Hood online and 4&20 Poetry.

In July of 2008 he launched DaveJarecki.com as a way to help foster conversation and community around writing and the word. Through the Guest Writer feature and Interview series, Jarecki wishes to showcase the writing, thoughts and insights of new and established voices alike.

Dave's Attic Academy workshops are a partnership between The Attic Writers' Workshop and Breakerboy Communications.
