I'm guessing the sorcerer is going to show up and kill the author and the quill and the book will be destroyed.

And then all the characters will be free from the authors for ever. I think what the writers meant with that is that the surprising change is something that affects the remainder of the series, similar to what happened at the end of season 1: bringing magic into Storybrooke, into a land without magic, really did affect the entire course of the show, much like the curse being broken - pretty much the entire first season finale was a massive game-changer (God, what a great episode!). The Sorcerer showing up and doing away with the Author would just, I think, provide a resolution to this particular ongoing story, it wouldn't really do much for the rest of the show. Besides, I'm willing to bet the Sorcerer is benevolent enough to just kill Isaac like that, but I could be wrong.

I don't think the sorcerer is in Storybrooke, and if he is it would be strange that he never apeared but then in the season finale he comes to save the day. Or he wants to stay a mystery, and he hides in the shadows, not that that much in EF knew of him. But I certainly hope that he will be revealed in the flashbacks.
