Dialogue is difficult to write, partly because of all the punctuation! That said, I use it quite often when I write anecdotes into my posts. Something that I think is important for dialogue that is written to be read, as opposed to spoken, other than the punctuation, are the adjectives/modifiers that describe some of the expressions and/or connotation that the author wants conveyed, and which are sometimes not always conveyed in just the words.

You are absolutely correct, dialogue is difficult to convey without the extras. This exercise helps to bring that awareness :)
