DA

I'm honestly astounded by this comment. I can't remember ever having to learn dialogue punctuation rules. I read a lot and picked them up by osmosis; nothing difficult about it. I always figured that people who couldn't punctuate dialogue just didn't give a shit, but you obviously do care and still find it confusing. My mind is currently blown.

(Good on you for making the effort, though! I wish more writers followed your example.)

I'm editing for a Swedish writer, so I have to look up dialogue rules in order to tell him what the rules are. I've repeatedly discovered that I'm breaking a rule, and I typically do so because the writers I learned from break it as well. (Case in point: http://mythicscribes.com/forums/writing-questions/11176-ellipses-dialogue-capitalization.html )

Yeah. It baffles me to this day. I'm sure I don't manage to use all the rules properly, but I do my best.

(My biggest fear is that I'm dumping mediocre fic into the aether. If it's bad, whatever. People will notice right away and stop reading. If it's good, all the yays! However, I fear I may be one of those authors for which the writing is worth the slog, but the slog makes it much less satisfying.)
