I'm not sure how to properly use quotation marks in my writing.

The key is to make sure you are using the right kind of quote marks for the right purpose. There are two main types of quotes, called “smart” and “dumb”. Smart quotes are used when you want to indicate that a word or phrase is being said by someone else, as in this sentence. Dumb quotes are used when you want to indicate that a word or phrase is being said by yourself, as in this sentence. For example, if I were to say "I love chocolate", you would know that it was me who said it because I am the one saying it. However, if I were to say "Chocolate is delicious", you wouldn't be able to tell whether I was talking about myself or another person.
