Coming to a close soon on the Merry Month of Cohen #You_Want_It_Darker fest of 2022 with this year's theme of No Happy Endings. Please message me if you'd still like to contribute, there's still a little time left!

Also - if you added to the ao3 collection and it did not work properly, please message me and I'll get you added. This year it's been a bit funky (even when posting my own stuff) so let me know if you did not get included and I'll make sure you are.

In a day or two I'll post all of the links and small summaries for those interested.

Thanks for participating and reading!

You Want It Darker

The Merry Month of Cohen Awaits and You Want It Darker

Usual parameters as before but this year’s twist: No Happy Endings.

1. Pick a Leonard Cohen song. Any Cohen song/lyrics you like as long as they sing the Siren’s Call of Pain and Angst. This year there are no happy endings.

2. Pick a date between 1 May and 15 May to sign up. If we get more than 15 sign ups, that’s great! We will double/triple up. I will turn no one away. Message this blog and you’ll be added to the timetable. Message any time with questions, etc…

3. Produce a fan work (art, fic, vid, gifset, poem, podfic, filk, etc…) that is based on some aspect of Star Trek (characters, plotlines, settings, pairings, ratings etc) and is somehow related to your chosen Cohen song. You can use the lyrics, the title, or the overall feel.

4. Mashing up Star Trek fandoms is cool but keep any crossovers contained in the Star Trek universe.

5. Post it to your chosen platform on your chosen date.

6. Either message this blog with the details of where it’s posted so we can publicize it, or if you’ve posted it on tumblr, tag your post with #merrymonthofcohen and tag this blog.

7. If you’re posting on AO3 you can also add your fan work to the you_want_it_darker collection.
