**Publishing a Picture Book with a Major Publisher**<\/p>\n
Since I was young, I loved drawing, always carrying watercolor paints in my pocket\u2014a memory my mother recalls.<\/p>\n
However, I was strongly opposed to reading books.<\/p>\n
Only picture books were different.<\/p>\n
This was because I could enjoy the illustrations without needing to read the text.<\/p>\n
I barely read the words at all.<\/p>\n
The few times I glanced at the text, it was only when I wanted to learn more about the images that caught my attention.<\/p>\n
Now, I want to share the story of how I became a picture book author, despite my aversion to reading.<\/p>\n
As I will be drawing from fragmented memories, I plan to write this story in several parts. I encourage you to read the related posts as well.<\/p>\n
Intuitively, I understood that becoming a published picture book author nationally posed a very daunting obstacle, or rather, that I would have to overcome many challenges.<\/p>\n
Below is a response I received from ChatGPT-4 when I asked, \u201cWhat level of difficulty is involved in becoming a nationally published picture book author?\u201d Please consider this as a reference only.<\/p>\n
**ChatGPT-4\u2019s Response:**<\/p>\n
*Becoming a nationally published picture book author is considered to be extremely difficult.*<\/p>\n
This is because, while many aspire to it, the path to success is uncertain and highly competitive.<\/p>\n
Quantifying the competition is challenging, but intuitively, it\u2019s comparable to or even exceeds the entrance exam difficulty of prestigious universities like the University of Tokyo or Kyoto University.<\/p>\n
Achieving success as a picture book author requires more than just creativity and artistic talent; skills in promoting your work, knowledge of the publishing industry, and a bit of luck are also necessary.<\/p>\n
In contrast, university entrance exams focus on preparation and academic ability.<\/p>\n
Since the nature of these hurdles differs, comparing them directly is difficult, but both represent very high barriers to entry.<\/p>\n
**End of ChatGPT-4 excerpt**<\/p>\n
By the way, the initial published work that marked my debut as a picture book author was an entry in a publisher\u2019s \u201cPicture Book Award\u201d competition.<\/p>\n
I am incredibly grateful to the head of the publishing planning department who selected my book from among 2,500 submissions.<\/p>\n
A competition with 2,500 entries is an intense, fierce battle.<\/p>\n
Since professional picture book authors also participated, the odds of 2,500 to 1 were well beyond my imagination.<\/p>\n
To put it into perspective, this is 1 in 2,500\u2014a truly formidable challenge.<\/p>\n
**Furthermore, I asked ChatGPT-4 to compare this with other selection processes involving similar levels of difficulty.**<\/p>\n
**ChatGPT-4\u2019s additional comments:**<\/p>\n
*The reason I became a nationally published picture book author was that I was chosen from among 2,500 submissions. Comparing this to qualification or entrance exams, it can be thought of like this:*<\/p>\n
– *The probability of being selected from 2,500 works is roughly 1 in 2,500, or 0.04%.*
\n– *This represents an extremely low chance, akin to or exceeding the difficulty of passing highly competitive exams.*<\/p>\n
*For example, the pass rate for medical or legal licensing exams is about 10\u201320%, which is comparatively higher\u2014making the challenge of being chosen in this context much steeper.*<\/p>\n
*In terms of competition, it\u2019s roughly comparable to or harder than passing the most difficult exams nationwide; in other words, an exceedingly narrow gate.*<\/p>\n
**End of excerpt**<\/p>\n
This means it\u2019s a thousand times more difficult than passing medical or legal licensing exams.<\/p>\n
Of course, comparing these directly is not straightforward, but it gave me a tangible sense of the challenge.<\/p>\n
This \u201cvery narrow gate\u201d finally opened.<\/p>\n
Unlike completely self-published works, which lack publisher management, media promotion, advertising, and negotiations with bookstores, getting through the publisher\u2019s review, undergoing scrutiny, and officially releasing my book as a published work was an incredibly precious and special achievement.<\/p>\n
And I was able to realize that.<\/p>\n
While there are many hurdles to becoming a nationally published picture book author, it is not impossible.<\/p>\n
Strong will and determination play huge roles in this process. Reflecting on my own experience, I am now fully aware of that, and I write these words with that conviction firmly in mind.<\/p>\n
