About
R. Antonio Matta

R. Antonio Matta is a proud member of the American Society for Journalists & Authors, the Society of Professional Journalists, and the Association of Health Care Journalists. He will always pride himself on the work he has done and will do for Content Done Write—his freelance business. But now, he flutters through the sky with his Authorpreneurial wings to produce captivating new fiction, creative nonfiction, poetry and digital stories. Antonio's work comprises artful and realistic depictions of the struggles and the triumphalism of those with impaired behavioral or mental health conditions, residue from trauma or adverse childhood experiences, scars from assorted types of abuse, substance or alcohol use disorders, sexuality or gender orientation, and other prominent concerns threatening the underrepresented in society. Those who can't seem to find their voice will discover empathy, relatability, and compassion for all of humankind in the author's work. It is difficult for many people to navigate through life's kaleidoscopes and pendulums. The collision of daily circumstances, the swing of various emotional climates and climaxes, and the ride of life's unpredictability, and the anxiety-provoking "unknown" often stifle people's cries for help. Antonio hopes his craft can guide those receptive toward a special place of authentic, unconditional love—regardless of any clinical diagnosis and despite fear or any phantasmal, unforgiven past encroaching on their present.
