Editing is editing when it comes right down to it. There are things you'll always look for: grammar, spelling, wordiness, readability. But editing erotica has it's own special things you need to watch for, whether you're editing your own or other's work.
Repetitiveness
There are only so many times that readers can stand reading those euphemisms for body parts. If you use the c*ck word or the pu**y word over and over again in a story, your readers will get bored! Mix it up! But keep in mind that certain words do not go with certain types of stories. If you are writing erotica that leans more towards the romantic, you don't want to use the hardcore words that are going to scare your readers away. If you're writing hardcore erotica that leans more towards porn, heaving bosoms just are going to do the trick. Choose your words carefully and try to add some variety.
