Hi Marcus, Some great "problem" sites that can provide opportunities for practice: - http://clojurescriptkoans.com/ (I think everything here is actually Clojure) - http://4clojure.com - make sure to turn on code golf mode and look at others' solutions too - http://exercism.io - get feedback from others on your solutions - https://projecteuler.net/ - http://codingforinterviews.com/ - great email series with practice problems
"Clojure for Web Development" from Pragmatic Press is a new Clojure book that is a little more focused on a problem domain and build a web app. Hope that helps...
