There are plenty of options with SQL Server today. You can find a huge amount of opportunities in SQL BI - analysis, reporting and integration services, powerpivot etc. You can take a look around some sites on the web about SQL development msdn.microsoft.com
might be a good starter. You need to understand SQL language, basic topics of SQL Server components and select some technology you will enjoy. Or you can just write SQL code - procedures, functions, triggers, index optimizations, fulltext etc. Still the first
key point is SQL language.
