First,There is a little wobbles in longer lines. But don't worry, you will get better as you continue to draw. There is no frayin on both end in ghosted lines exercise. That's good. In ghosted plane your lines getting better. The ellipses are touching each other in table of ellipses exercise. They are good.There are no floating in ellipses in plane exercise.They are touching the boundaries.The boxes are also good.The corner are close in rotated box exercise which is good.in organic perspective exercise, I can see that your boxes are clearly rotating. Your understanding of boxes and perspective will improve as you do the 250 boxes challenge.Great work. Cheers mate. Have a great day!!!!
Next Steps:
You can continue to 250 boxes challenge

I agree, I would also suggest rotating the page and ghosting the lines until you are comfortable, try relaxing your shoulder a bit, maybe changing the speed of your strokes might help with the wobble. Good luck on your journey!
The recommendation below is an advertisement. Most of the links here are part of Amazon's affiliate program (unless otherwise stated), which helps support this website. It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something I've used myself. If you're interested, here is a full list.
PureRef
This is another one of those things that aren't sold through Amazon, so I don't get a commission on it - but it's just too good to leave out. PureRef is a fantastic piece of software that is both Windows and Mac compatible. It's used for collecting reference and compiling them into a moodboard. You can move them around freely, have them automatically arranged, zoom in/out and even scale/flip/rotate images as you please. If needed, you can also add little text notes.
When starting on a project, I'll often open it up and start dragging reference images off the internet onto the board. When I'm done, I'll save out a '.pur' file, which embeds all the images. They can get pretty big, but are way more convenient than hauling around folders full of separate images.
Did I mention you can get it for free? The developer allows you to pay whatever amount you want for it. They recommend $5, but they'll allow you to take it for nothing. Really though, with software this versatile and polished, you really should throw them a few bucks if you pick it up. It's more than worth it.
