Instead of only drawing things from your head try to incorporate these exercises:
Try some observational drawings of still life or landscapes - it helps train your brain to understand shapes more. When you draw don't draw the objects but the space around them. Use different materials for your drawings (marker for one, pencil for another, charcoal for another and so on) - so you don't become to reliant on one type of mark making. Then have a friend tell you were you need to improve, draw it again and try to improve that.
Ask someone to sit for you and pose every 30 seconds. Don't worry about details, but rather try to capture the gesture and emotion. After you've done like 20 of those ask them to sit for 20 minutes to do one drawing (if they will sit longer that is great). If you cant get anyone to sit for you use a proportional artist doll (wooden ones are normally 5-10 dollars at craft stores). Try to make the drawing as consistently detailed at all times so that if you have to stop you can't tell if you spent more time on one are than the other. If you do this a few times a week you will get better really fast.
Everyday practice your blind contour to help train your hand eye coordination - this is where you stare at something and slowly try to draw it without picking up your pencil or looking at your paper. It always looks weird but the drawing doesn't matter, you're just building muscle memory for your hand.
These are things even the most technically skilled artists do as practice. The greatest artist probably do them everyday. There's tons of free tutorials on DA and also on the internet if you need help. Also check out youtube videos, watching someone draw (who is good at it) can be very helpful. I think you can be a very skilled artist if you really want to. Don't forget that even the best artists started far less advanced than you are today and everyone is trying to get better. How much work you put into it will determine how good you get. Good luck! Can't wait to see where you go from here
