Quite simply. Shady Blue Fairy told him.

Sure! Why not!
(but if she knows all this why didn’t she tell Emma back in 412?)

"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"March 30, 2015 at 11:54 am #300295MatthewPaulModeratorActually, a thought just occurred to me. Did the Sorcerer and Apprentice choose a new author after they imprisoned the author we just met? We don’t even know if the author even still has his powers, because his quill was taken away by the Apprentice. Maybe August knows all of this information because he was secretly chosen as that author’s successor? As for why he’s not telling Emma and company this information, he may have his reasons. But yeah, August being chosen as the succeeding author would explain so many things. Yeah, I know this theory might have its holes, but I thought I might as well suggest it.

I like August being the Author as well, but weren’t Princess Leia and Prince Charles added to the book while August was Pinocchio? I think the Author could make changes to the book while inside it but could not continue the story without the quill.
Also someone gave Robin that alternate page 23. Either the Author or the Sorcerer.
My crackpot theory is that the Blue Fairy and the Author are in cahoots. Maybe that’s why she turned August into Pinocchio so that new happy endings could not be written.

Cover up plot holes, yes. But not as poetic as Henry being the next Author.

One of them can be the Illustrator. Someone has to be.

If the next author was theoretically chosen when the Peddler was imprisoned, then Henry wouldn’t have even been born yet. So August/Pinocchio could have been chosen as the new author for the time being, while Henry could still be an author in the future. As for why Pinocchio was chosen, I think the Apprentice would have looked for someone who’s the opposite of the Peddler. Someone brave, truthful and unselfish. This was when Pinocchio had turned into a real boy, and had earned those qualities, but before he would go astray once in the Land Without Magic.

That’s true but are we even sure that a new one was chosen? The DC hit not too long after. Unless it’s like “Avatar” and a new one is chosen instantly.

Someone had to write those last few pages, though. The book ends right when the curse hits, but the Peddler was already imprisoned by that point. Though that could have easily just been the Apprentice taking over. Not to mention, August just happened to choose being a writer as his career choice, and we still don’t know how he knew Neal was Baelfire.
