As posted on her blog: New Thoughts Now you may all have a issue with what I am about to say. You shouldn't if you truly are my friend, fan, co worker, etc. As you may know my road back into porn has been a little bumpy. Most likely because I made it that way for myself. It doesn't bother me now that I think about it totally. I have come to the conclusion that my life was made for better things than taking dicks up every hole in my body. I LOVE THE ENTIRE SEX INDUSTRY AND ALWAYS WILL. Just now at this time in my life it just isn't right for me. So I have decided to start my conquest to help young adults. Don't exactly know where to start. So I started by contacting some motivational speakers and their agents. Don't worry folks I am not by any means trying to belt the bible out at people just trying to make people in general more a where of the sex industry. I want to shed light on it, give people a insight into it, weather it be good or bad. I don't feel people young or old are fully a where of what they are entering when they get into the business. I mean seriously I can think back to when I entering the business there was no one to tell me what would happen in the long run, things that could happen to me etc. Although when I met Mark Speigler he told me and taught me a lot. More than any one else ever did. Ok so besides that this is what I am thinking... And have been thinking... Everyday a new 18 year old walks through the door of porn to be (possibly) used and washed up any where within 3 months to 2 years. Although some do make it pass their "shelf life", and go on to do great things within the industry. But for the most part not many do. No one is their to tell them what happens in the long run. Things they could get involved with, diseases they can catch, how many times just one scene they shoot will turn into 50, I could keep going and going. But I will stop now and save it for my motivational speaking. Alright so I am still house dancing here in Arizona @ Amazon's. Although may be switching to Babylon shortly here. I like the staff over there and owners. Not that I don't like everyone at Amazon's, just that they will be closing down during the summer for a full renovation. So it will be within my best interest to switch clubs sooner, and build up cliental at a new place. lol I will also be shooting in AZ for a web company here shortly. I've decided to finally make a ASS SMOOTHIE Video. LOL I decided to use ice cream and strawberries. : ) Hope you all enjoy. I will also continue to shoot periodic spit swaps scenes. I understand at this point you are probably sitting there calling me a hypocrite or just thinking I am silly and talking out my ass. But who better to speak out on the industry then someone in it to some extent still. So on to other things... I am sitting at my Dad's house because I told my brother I would hang out with him as much as possible before he went to the military. So it's cool. But I am done writing now. So I'll talk to you all shortly. Edited by - Tmkowal on Mar 26 2008
Taryn did some amazing work in the adult industry and I am glad to have some great titles to remind of that. However, as I have daughters myself, I admire that which she wishes to achieve. Best of luck, Taryn
It appears the news of Taryn's retirement has been greatly exaggerated... From her blog: IMPORTANT FYI HOW DID MY LAST Blog??? Turn into I AM Retiring??? Geez... Louis... People... Read the whole thing before you go post things on message boards. If I was going to RETIRE I would put out a PRESS RELEASE. Thanks - Taryn
1. Taryn Thomas is still active??? 2.Taryn Thomas is so obviously and sadly mistaken. I kid. Cute girl. It's too bad things didn't work out like some may have wanted. [Link]
Yeah it was clearly a "This is what I will be doing until my problems with LA Direct are fixed" statement.

That entry is such a tangle of despondency, desperation and jondras that I don't even know where to begin. I could hold forth at length, but Taryn has a large fan following and they will brook no effrontery from the likes of me. But just read that thing! If anyoneknows her, get her help because I can read between the lines and she's at the end of her rope. Edited by - nietzsche on 3/27/2008 2:21:07 AM

I wasn't "a where" that she was still in the biz. The last video I saw her in was some Penny Flame thing where Jack Venice peed on her because of her divatastic attitude in the video.

She changes her mind about this stuff every two weeks. This latest blog means nothing.
I think Taryn's a kick in the pants, but my advice would be to focus on some long-term wage generating behaviors, since for whatever (and surely various and complex) reasons, she's had a failure to re-launch into porn. The fact that someone so well-liked by so many could go from the lead role in the top feature of 2005(?) -- 2006? -- "Vault of Whores" back to stripping in Arizona, in such a relatively short time, suggests a lot of things going on that we probably don't need to know about. (Although, I suspect, we already do ... thanks to the Internets).

taryn isent retiring....personally my thoughts are that she will be back 1 day but when the time is right and when she feels shes ready nobody can make that decision but her best of luck taryn!
Neech, I pulled a Danny Thomas at your reply. Jondras. HAHAHA I am not "a where" if Taryn still reads here, but I wish her luck in her... wait, she isn't retiring. Fuck it. Nevermind. I'm lost.
It's hard to go from having to decide which handbag and little dog to take to PSK to comparing prices at a grocery store in the Ramen Noodles aisle. In all but a very few cases "long-term wage generating" will take several years of school or working your way up from the unskilled entry-level minimum wage position, and few girls in porn seem prepared to cut their expenses to the point that can work. How often do you hear an anal queen say she could get by doing only two scenes a month? That's roughly the income level real world students at that age have.
You know what...I was beginning to become a fan for a minute, but if she keeps doing this I'm just gonna lose my patience and not even bother to check out her new stuff whenever she decides to make her comeback. Sorry Taryn, but I'm getting too old for this shit.

I'm sure Taryn is in Jay Sins Gape lovers 2, and this dvd hasn't even been released yet.
Does that mean Taryn won't be stopping by for a scene with Lucky Bastard anytime soon? Seems like a shoo-in to me. She looks great the candid pics ... if it's just the LA Direct nonsense that's hanging her up, then that's silly.
When did I say I have no interest in my movie making? Are you me? Do you think for me now? If you don't know me don't speak to me. Don't post something YOU HAVE NO CLUE ABOUT! I have A LOT OF INTEREST IN performing still. COME HELL OR HIGH WATER I WILL! AND 10 TIMES BETTER THAN BEFORE.
