Would I use a hyphen in the following sentences?
Often times I will hyphenate "ever-changing" when describing a noun. However, does it remain hyphenated when it follows the noun? e.g.
It's no secret, our industry is ever-changing.
Should this be hyphenated or not? Same goes for the following:
I have well-rounded qualities. If the compound follows the noun would it still be hyphenated?
My qualities are well-rounded. Hyphenated or not?

"Ever-changing" can go either way, as it's spelled with and without a hyphen, though it's usually spelled with a hyphen. As for "well-rounded", the word is spelled without a hyphen if the word follows the noun.
