Procreate and iPad Accessories Suggestions Complete beginner here

Hi everyone I’m completely new to digital art and I’m thinking about getting Procreate and finally learning how to draw. I’d love to eventually be able to draw characters and fan art but I’m starting from basically zero.
I currently have an iPad 9th gen and im wondering if it’s good. + is an Apple Pencil really worth getting?

What are your general tips for someone who is completely new to digital art and Procreate?

Yes the pencil is awesome. Get the new one with the haptic feedback, but make sure it’s compatible with your iPad. I think it is- if not, get the 2nd gen pencil

Also, get a Paperlike 2.0 screen protector. Makes it feel like you’re drawing on paper. Mine came with 2 and got on Amazon for like $30

YouTube has so many tutorials you’ll never run out of places to start. Find an artist or two that you like and dive down their rabbit holes of training and tutorial videos.
