Pick up a pencil and sketch daily. Eventually save up for a tablet and go digital. Avoid staying forever using a chicken scratch technique to draw your lines.

A good tip for lines is to make a large, smooth, light line and then go over it with many other large smooth light lines until the line looks correct. If you happen to have stray lines protruding outwards away from the intended path, then gently erase it. That's what I do.

I considered drawing a peener here but I'm in school.

When I was in school I'm pretty sure every single guy drew one peener every day in everything they could find. It was the worst easter egg hunt ever.

One of Andrew Loomis' books. I don't look at it enough, myself, but it's a huge help. It's not a definitive guide but it definitely works and is still recommended and used by some/many. Use it to guide you/as reference and advice. That's just for human figures in particular, though. Loomis has also done 'Fun With a Pencil', and I highly recommend you look it up, 'cus it's good too. See it here.
Like everyone else has said, draw every day. Never stop, ever. Don't go for a 'style' in the beginning, either-it won't help you in the least (or so I have heard). Before you start drawing in a style, it's good to go for things as they are. Draw what you're not good at, what you're afraid of drawing, etc. until it's good. Don't get satisfied with your art, and don't try to either. Draw from life, copy cheat n' steal (but not directly), etc. etc. Better work hard. I'm trying to do this, myself. It's nice to draw every day.
