Charles,
Your emails offer an interesting analysis. This is fascinating research and statistics. I appreciate your sharing this.
I have a question -- IF anyone knows the answer. I don't think I saw it i n my quick read (I'll go back to read again for precision)
What are the numbers and percentages of males v. females, and for different races/ethnic/social backgrounds and ages would be nice to know too, of
1. published authors and 2. people submitting children's book proposals/ideas or manuscripts that do not get published?
I don't know if that is an area for research or if the statistics are out there, but the NY Public Library Children's Literary Salon did address some issues in publishing of work by ethnic minority and female authors i n a very interesting discussion earlier this year.
