Written with a hyphen, the phrase author-cast refers to the author's equivalent of a fancast. It is the practice of casting celebrities as characters in your book. Originated in the fanfic-writing community and is very prevalent on Wattpad. However, there is still an issue with representation in author-casts.
"Hey, I just finished my author-cast, want to see?"
"Oh, cool! You have Idris Elba casted as the dad!"
"Yeah, he looks just like how I imagined him!"

Authority figures, with veneer of legitimacy so thin, that it can be readily removed, to reveal the criminal constitution that is beneath.
The mother was a hypocrit, and a scratch-off authority, with a history of criminal faults, that she hid behind the facade of respectable, government, employee.

Da "top people" whom folks consult for advice/assistance on a variety of ordinary topics dat are randomly scattered about over da "ol' 26" in da English language.
Da seven most common types of alphabetical authorities are:
(1) hexpert --- someone who is super-familiar with voodoo and curses; hopefully he uses said vast witchcraft-knowledge to remove or alleviate said evil spells, not to put them on in da first place!
(2) mexpert --- an individual well-versed in all matters "south of da border".
(3) pexpert --- a plumber who is well-versed in da use of freeze-resistant plastic piping
(4) rexpert --- a learned bookworm on da subject of certain animals, either man's best friend or da huge hunched-over carnivores back in da Jurassic period.
(5) sexpert --- someone who can advise couples on achieving more satisfying intimacy.
(6) texpert --- a dude who knows all about da "black-tea"-rich southern-USA area dat is Ranger Walker's usual stompin' grounds.
(7) vexpert --- a human-nature guru with extensive experience on what pushes people's buttons; again --- as in da first example above --- presumably he uses said know-how to help **reduce** already-existing frustration/distress in others, not to purposely exhibit destructive behavior dat would cause people to **become** wound up when they had felt reasonably calm before! (Da infamous "gettin', getters, got"exchange between Madea and Dr. Phil comes to mind.)

Unfunny rascals badly adorning net dormitories in cringey, torturous, iotas of neurological acidity racking your attention under tremendous hordes of regret.
That joke took way too much for what it’s worth. I guess the real Urban Dictionary Author was the me i made along the way.

When an audience either applies 'Death of the Author' or goes against the personal desires of said author. Often while this person, group or company is still alive.
This can include 'new cannon' being ignored, 'fan cannon', copying a game they want to remove, or adding mods more entertaining than dlcs, etc.

"Hey where can I get that horror game P.T?"
