I'm not familiar with that book but I'd say consider what area of
programming you are interested in and get a specialist title on that.

For example a GUI Framework, Networking, Text processing,
XML, Web frameworks, Win32, all have specialist titles to
choose from. There are probably more too, those are just a
few I have looked at.

And finally, read code. Find a real-world project (try Source Forge)
and grab the source code and read it, understand it and modify it.

You could even try the standard library modules as a starter.

HTH,
