Re - Invention ( A cause for peace )

[longboardjim]

my models "transition" from porn to mainstream , i photograph for both worlds , the majority of the time it's ..."new girlfriend doesn't want me to do porn so do you have any other work for me?...
i had responded to another post sometime ago about the "shelf-life" of a pornstar and the "stages" of transition but that has to do with someone that intends to stay in porn till the end. ( ron J*remy )
contrary to popular belief not all porn stars die in seedy hotels of drug overdoses some actually start mainstream buisnesses and lead normal lives and persue other ventures not requiring sheets and gallons of lube.
the past is the past and unless it's relevant to your future "Mr.president" i wouldn't worry about it haunting you and/or creating too much of a stir , seems like everyone these days has a dirty little film hidden somewhere.
in regards to relationships i wouldn't be in a hurry to secure one , sounds like your trying to find/explore yourself so i would wait until you do before you go looking for someone else.
and my imparting words of wisdom/insanity are be happy in whatever you decide to do.

Kelly,

You're going through a big transition. How wonderful for you! Self discovery is painful, but it's also amazingly wonderful.

One thing is for sure: in porn, if you're in front of the camera, you need a back plan. If you're hot, you won't be forever. If while you're hot, you're socking the money away or working on building up alternate skills, then you might be able to weather your demise later on. Because let's face it, porn is always looking for a fresh, new face.

You seem to have some skills in some other areas, you manage your own website, don't you? You write. You want to start a blog. So why not continue in the business, but take a role behind the scenes. Start your own site, start your own production company.

And while things are fresh in your mind, why don't you sit down and make a list of all of the things you didn't like about your experience thus far. Make that your anti-mission statememnt, in other words, if you end up creating a company that produces porn, try to move away from those things that bugged you, try to help the people who work for you have a different experience.

How can your experience help somebody who is just starting now?

Cheers,
Michael

Thanks Michael you always have such amazing things to say.. I appreciate it very much thanks alot.... Also I have alot more than Im good at:
I danced for 3 years before I did porn as well as I can cook anything and make it look like the mona lisa chip knows Im a good cook and I love to cook!!!

I can dance like non other and Im really really good at doing promoting and I can alot of computer stuff as well.. I know that I made of alot and I like to think of myself as kinda of a "jack of all trades" if you will!
you get what I mean.. I cann pretty much do anything I put my mind to and it usually turns out really successfull and completly amazing. So Im confident of succeeding I just am figuring out what!?!?

and yes... It has been painful but the pain has brang me back to my old self...
I remember before I started doing porn I use to print and catalog ads for like gottschalks and jcpenny haha and one time I got in a stupid mall GAP ads etc... so I was going to modeling school when I met boyfunk/cuteboyvideos
I was doing alot of other things hehe just some history about me...
I have completed school as far as high school goes and I went to college here and there before trying out different things and never sticking to them.. But this time it seems right
and yes I have some new sites going up and Im very knowledgable as far doing stuff in the industry!
If I had to I could complelty, author, edit my own dvds and come up with dvd art for the disc and packaging.... I have learned how to shoot photography well and I have learned about lighting really well as well as filming videos! I have a ton of interviews from LAS VEGAS of many porn stars it is really fun and Im in it and it is unreleased as of yet
so I know I will be fine

I have alot of people who care about me and that love me and that is what really matters and makes me feel amazing!

I have traveled everywhere.. not many places I havent been and Im thankful for that! I have met alot of amazing people in the industry such as you michael that I look up to.. I feel really whole inside for once it is quite an amazing feeling :beauty:
