Hi

Breaking even for your first 9 months is pretty good. I would say a lot of players lose money in their first year, before they improve.

You have already read some good books, i found "Harrington on Hold 'Em" VOL I & 2 very very good.

Other than that it's just a case of keep playing, the more you play, the more you learn.

Also write down your tourney results along with the "key hand/s" that either knocked you out or crippled your stack. If you find that you had your money in with the best hand and just got outdrawn, then you are on the right road.

Good Luck
