Welcome to The Crimson Daggers Wing!
Your statement about not making a living of art but taking it seriously as if you were going to really strikes a chord with me - I feel the same way.
I am finding that joining an art forum - particularly this one is that if you're going down the self-taught route as I am - an art forum fills the gap of having other students around you for inspiration and comeraderie (like you'd get at art school say).
Personally I've found this particular forum to have the best vibe for people just studiously honing their craft and helping others along the way - I hope you find the same.
Smart move making a sketchbook already - I recommend keeping yours updated and getting involved in others - as John has said, the folks on here are generous with their time and knowledge.
Looking forward to having you along for the journey :).
