Hi! I’m Maria, and this is Accelerated Stall.
My posts are literary “snapshots” of life; taking a quick shot of an otherwise fleeting moment – instead of film I use words to capture nonfictional moments, events as I watched them unfold or experienced them first hand.
What’s an Accelerated Stall? It’s an aviation term describing when an aircraft experiences a stall while turning or pulling up from a dive. I often find this describes my life well, I’m traveling too fast and banking intense turns and WHOA! I have to pull up hard. That’s when I hear a sputter and I stall. Generally I recover easily to continue relatively unscathed – may need clean panties afterward but that’s a topic for someone else to write about.
I grasp opportunities to discover new places – be that Cambodia or Montana, and I seek out new experiences (both sedate and raucous) – finding they all fit like a missing corner piece of a jigsaw puzzle.
Visit often and discover this sometimes raw, often sublime world with me.
Come on, let’s go!
