You do have to be careful about not just disappearing... as Basschick said, Falcon brings with it an incredible publicity machine, and if you're no longer with them, you'll have to work really hard to keep your name in front of everyone.

Somebody (a friend of his who is representing himself as a "manager") convinced Brent Everett that he could make a fortune by refusing to do videos for any other companies and only releasing his own stuff. As far as I know, he's neither released anything, nor has he done anything else that's created any visibility.

I think that porn is even more here-and-now than the mainstream entertainment business. If a model is out of the market for more than a few months, people simply move on to the "next big thing" (no pun intended.)

Pierre, you have a lot going for you. Just realize that without a big publicity machine behind you, it will require a lot more work on your side to keep your name (well, and your dick, I guess) in front of people and keep them buying your products.

Best of luck in any case... I think that if anyone can do it, you can.
