@lyttlejoe Sorry. We haven't been on here in a while. I'm still trying to decide the best time because I know everyone is busy with ONC. I'm thinking maybe after the last submit date for ONC. I think we probably will if I can find dates that work well,

The Strawberry Cupcake Awards is now full! Spots filled in less than 24 hours. Judging will begin now.  Depending how this contest goes, I may do another in the near future. We’ll see. 
          
          I'm also wondering if there is any interest in another UIC in the future and/or the image prompt contest. If there is, please comment below or DM the account with comments or questions. 
          
          Thank you to everyone who sent us kind words about our return!

Hello, everyone! It’s Andi here. I know Duncana and I shut down the community a few months ago. We’re not entirely back. We’ve decided we are going to collaborate on a book project together if anyone wants to check it out, it’ll be here on the profile soon. 
          
          I may start up some community things like contests at some point. But right now our book collaboration will be what we are doing on here. 
          
          I hope all of you have been doing well. Feel free to message this account if you have any questions.

@lookinprettyGrim <3 Thank you for the kind words! I missed it on here but had a lot of personal things happening.

The UIC winners have been announced! Thank you to everyone who participated and congratulations to the winners. All winners have been DMed a link to the prize form. I have only received one complete form and one that was entirely blank. I'm not sure who it was from. If you submitted a form and didn't receive a confirmation message from me, we didn't receive it. Feel free to message the account to double check. If you wish to receive your prize please do your best to have the form completed in the next week. If you need more time to complete the form, message the account, so I know you still plan on collecting the prize.

@lyttlejoe  I see that now. Thank you for letting me know. I saw the answers were blank and didn't see your comment. I thought the form glitched and was worried someone was waiting for their prize. That's very kind of you. Thank for participating and congratulations!

            I sent back a form and all I filled in was the comments section at the bottom with an explanation of my action. If you don't find it I will PM you with a repeat.
            It was a great challenge and a lot of fun. Thank you.

Hey, are you going to leave the UIC book up when you close? It’s just that I planned to enter it and wrote half of my book but didn’t get the chance to enter. I’m on a break from writing and was planning to continue with the book using the prompts later on.

@lasania_mahnoor Sorry. I just saw this. I was planning on leaving it for a while. I can leave it up so you can finish.

Due to several people contacting me, I have moved the Writing Tips and new Enneagram book to @Andij37  You don't have to follow me or anything. My only intent is to be helpful to everyone on here. Feel free to add them to your library if you want to be notified of updates. Thank you for all the support we have received! We greatly appreciate all of you and wish you well on your writing journey.

@Andij37 here. Duncana and I have decided to close the Berry Patch Community. UIC participants don't worry. We are still planning on announcing winners and delivering the prizes we promised. That will happen sometime soon. We will give enough time for all of that to happen, and then we will be closing the community. Winners will still receive their professional graphics.
          
          We've both had a lot of things happen this year and are busy in our personal lives. We have enjoyed serving the Wattpad community for almost three years but feel it's time to move forward with other projects. 
          
          I will still be around if you'd like to message me, and we will keep the Discord open if you need help with anything.  I am debating whether to move the Writing Tips book to my personal profile or leave it down. If that was helpful to anyone, please let me know. I'll factor that into my decision.
          
          Thank you to all the support and great memories you have given us. We hope we have been helpful and encouraging to any who utilized the Berry Patch Community.

@BerryPatchCommunity I’ll miss you lots, but I’m fine with your decision. It’s your account after all, so do as you please! I hope you’ll be able to make future projects or your own content soon. You shall be missed, and thank you for all you’ve done!

Disappointing news but I understand and respect the decision. You will be missed and I wish the both of you the best. Even a small impact can do a lot. You've certainly inspired me so thank you

            I only discovered you this year, and was excited by the format. Sorry you are closing up but real life and other things force changes on us all. Thanks for this though and best of luck in whatever you choose to do in future.

Thank you to everyone who participated in the UIC 2023! The entry form has closed for judging. Results will be posted on or around May 21st. 
          
          We hope you enjoyed the contest even if you didn't enter. We are currently debating whether to hold the contest next year or not. If we decide to do this again, we will let you know.

            The challenge was indeed enjoyable and a lot of fun as well. I am sorry you didn't get the response deserved for all the work.
            Fingers crossed for next year.
