I think these sound like awesome plans (your space opera sounds intriguing and I think the selections process for publications is, if not random, so much luck too...) — and also, it's almost never too late to 'become a writer', especially since you already are one, albeit an unpublished one. My father started writing when he retired, starting with shorter things and using all the connections he had built up systematically before to get in small publications, as well as sending stuff in for competitions.
About HHD: I read that one first too because I'm usually reluctant to start WIPs, or fanfictions that have a setting too far away from the original. It's a good gateway drug to the AQ series :) Have you changed any content in overhauling it for new uploads?
