"I loved everything about this story. The writing was terrific, the story was full of context and supported by great interviews. Most of all, I thought the subject was unique and fun and unexpected. I hadn't gone into judging expecting my top pick would be a story about sea snails." —CNPA judge comment for the 2021 California Journalism Awards
