Congratulations Molly!

We asked you all to send in your thoughts on each of the moonwalkers who were listed as finalists for this year's newest award, Most Influential Moonwalker. Here is what you said about Molly, who has won for this year:

"She's a really great person, and no matter how popular her stories become, she never lets it get to her head. She's just a really kind person full of positive thoughts and feedback."

"It's her story, it takes you to a whole other world. Not any regular world either, no... a fantasy as a matter of fact. It gives you a place to escape... she deserves to win this."

"Molly is an amazing author with stories that have extremely well developed characters... She's very talented, but I also believe she is humble and she loves her fans and stories with a passion which I find to be a very rare trait."
