Mixed Animal wins Next Generation Indie Book Award [View all]

in the Humor/Comedy category of all things. They didn't realize it's a documentary.

Published by Loyola University Maryland's Apprentice Press in June 2025.
Apprentice was kind enough to keep the full original title from its birth here at DU in 2004:

I Inherited a Mixed Animal from Uncle Living in Woods.

Still grateful and humble for being the bewildered vessel for Oscar (now Yonder), Lemuel, Shane, and all the Hmm crew to pass through like otters through a firehose.

"Hilarious from first page to last."
--Scott Davidson, Next Generation Indie Book Awards Judge
