Some information on the dialogue dash here: [Using dashes in writing dialogue](https://writers.stackexchange.com/questions/6724/using-dashes-in-writing-dialogue) However, if your readers are in America, the U.K., or Australia (at minimum), you should stay with quote marks. Americans use double quotes for dialogue and the British use single quotes; I don't know what Australians use.
