I haven't ever done anything too significant in Haskell, but the Jekor Redo [1] videos are fantastic, and demonstrate the slow building up of more complicated things than "reverse this string." I haven't watched his xmonad [2] or pandoc [3] videos yet, but I would bet that they are highly worthwhile as well.

I it won't solve the problem you're having, but it's an interesting talk that's kind of related
