I generally do not need to do that. My characters -- if they are the kind to hump in front of me at all -- have no trouble communicating the jolly good time they are having. Some of them have relatively ordinary tastes. Others are quite eclectic. It gets even more interesting when one or more of the participants has a non-standard set of bodily equipment. Describing the subjective fun of organs and/or senses that humans don't typically have ... yeah, that's the challenge of writing speculative erotica. It makes ordinary pr0n look easy.

I'm glad I could help.
>>I think, perhaps, part of the problem is, for me, these types of scenes require me a longer time period of intense concentration than I usually have available to me.<<
*chuckle* Well, yeah, naturally. Sex scenes are still sexual. Most people need some time to get warmed up, and are not keen on having someone suddenly barge in on them while writing that sort of thing. It ruins the mood.
>>Now that I will be getting more alone time, perhaps I will be able to relax more, and let the characters take me where THEY want to go. Thanks!<<
That sounds good. You might also find it helpful to set the mood a bit -- close your door, dim the lights a notch, maybe put on some quiet music.
