BallerinaBelle wrote: What later stories in the book? The Author was imprisoned during Snow's pregnancy. So scenes from "Pilot", "The Thing You Love Most" and "Queen Of Hearts" (and probably others) went unwritten by the Author, yet still show up in the book. Most notably, Emma's birth, which is literally the last four pages of the book.

This suggests someone was an interim Author until the Curse swept over the land.
