First off, watch your margins.

Secondly, I would recommend going to your local community college and
taking a class on C.  Should be pretty cheap, and you will probably learn
things that you may or may not learn on your own.

Thirdly, get a hold of other people's sources, and look at theirs, and
try to understand why they did what they did.  This has proven invaluable
to me in learning just about anything.

Fourthly, RTFM.  You should get about 10 pounds in docs for your compiler,
and you can learn a lot by leafing through them, because you will pick
up things you may later want to refer back to and use as reference in your
projects.

Fifthly, and finally, get projects of your own.  Learning by doing, I say.
