Writing is an art not a science. Such being the case, there is a good measure of latitude with respect to the use of slang, especially when writing fiction. You need to first know the rules before you can properly break them. This may sound contradictory, but it's not. Allow me to expand. The primary reason for writing anything is communication. And a writer's job is to enhance said communications by way of mechanics, word-usage and the subsequent images nurtured in the minds of the readers. Slangs, because they are, for the most part, colorful, tend to conjure up the intended image. For example, if you are writing about a socially and financially depressed neighborhood where violence and drug abuse is the norm, the word "hood" goes further in capturing the essence of the aforementioned conditions than the word "neighborhood." But when choosing slang, consider these two precautions: Use slangs that are widely accepted in order to avoid "What does he mean by that?" Do not inundate your writing with slang to the point your work represents an alternative to standard English and requires a glossary to be understood.
