Re: Being THAT writer

I guess it would depend on how they feel about the trope. Me, I can't get enough sex pollen. I would love it if authors who have written it before wrote more sex pollen. When I find a story I like (any story, not just sex pollen) I usually check what else the author has written to see if there might be something else up my alley. If every story the author wrote in the fandom was really, really similar, it would get boring, but seeing a trope I loved used more than once would be great. If I didn't love the trope so much, I might not bother reading the others the author wrote that used it, unless I was just really impressed with the story I'd read first. Also, it depends on what you write for each fandom, not the stories you write overall, since people usually don't bother reading fics for canons they're not into (I don't even do that for sex pollen).

That's kind of my concern. Soulmate AUs have the benefit of different kinds of worldbuilding but at the end of the day, sometimes I want to write the exact same setup for a different set of characters. Or, if I've already written a soulmate AU for a set of characters, then I feel intense pressure to make it REALLY different if I write another, and generally, I feel like I'm not allowed to write the AU again at all for those characters. I do feel like it could all end up being samey and boring.
