Novelist

In the context of psychology, the term "novelist" typically does not refer to the profession of writing novels but may instead be used metaphorically to describe a specific cognitive or psychological process.

These self-constructed narratives can play a significant role in shaping one's self-identity, emotional well-being, and overall mental health.
