Don't hyphenate at the end of a line. Use a hard hyphen or other method of forcing hyphenated phrases to be kept on the same line. Otherwise, a typesetter is left having to decide if the hyphenated word or phrase requires a hyphen, or if it was used here just because of the line break. Try very hard to avoid dialect. Show different speech patterns and word choices in ways that are easier on the reader.

Look carefully when you're reading published fiction by a pro to see how dialogue is punctuated.
