I'm confused, too. I really hope they go in to that because, without free will, the characters are a lot less interesting. Without the ability to make choices they lose their personality and complexity.

However, the sorcerer seems a lot more aware and influential in the story than most characters. And he's able to punish the author and make him give up his quill. Maybe there's some type of regulation committee or something that the sorcerer's a part of. The author would be the head of it, as he's able to dictate what the sorcerer does. But maybe the members or just the sorcerer is able to impeach the author if he does evil?
