Also, bonus thoughts re: repetitiveness in explicit fics —
For me personally, as long as an author is able to get across different kinds of dynamics that match the scenarios that they set up, I actively enjoy it when they're then repetitive in terms of their style/writing the same kinks across different scenarios or with different characters. There'll be some scenarios/dynamics that don't work for me, but being able to capture a breadth of them also means that there's probably something to my tastes in the mix. That's where your works tend to fall for me. What makes porn less enjoyably repetitive for me is when I feel that an author always seems to be writing the exact same dynamic regardless of the characters or scenarios, especially when there's dissonance between the scenario and dynamic; I find the scenarios and dynamics sufficiently different across your works so as not to be repetitive for the most part, and I usually feel that the dynamics match the scenario.
At the same time, your style is recognisable enough for me to pick out in a crowd, which I really like! For a specific example, one thing I've noticed and enjoyed across your explicit works is how the sex is typically framed in brief, short scenes and moments, broken up with line breaks in between. I really like this because it gets straight to the point, picks out the hottest moments of the porn and focuses on them, which I enjoy a lot! Another thing that works well for me (especially in the PWPs) is your use of direct descriptions. No embarrassment, just very clear and vivid imagery. That's one of the things I look for in kink fic and which I find that your works do well for me.
For the most part, I've found that what works/doesn't work for me for your works tends to simply be whether or not I like the kinks. If they're kinks I like, then chances are I'll like the work, since I enjoy your style! I sometimes do struggle with the fact that kinks I like can come packaged with kinks I don't like, but this is just a natural hazard of any fic so I'd say it's a feature, not a bug.

tl;dr: I like the porn you write, haha.
