Our open submission categories are linked below. We ask that you review the submission guidelines as they directly apply to each category. Each editor has a preference for submission methods, subject matter, etc.

There is no one-size-fits-all aspect to Cobalt.

For any questions, please reach out to us via cobalt@cobaltreview.com.

We publish one author’s work at a time in The Cobalt Weekly on cobaltreview.com. This could be a short story, essay, one or more poems, a book review, an interview, or something entirely different. The goal is to publish something each Wednesday, but sometimes we get a little too busy in our other lives to stay on this schedule. We do our best.

There is going to be one more baseball issue released in October 2023. This tenth and final “Extra Innings” issue will also be the driver of the final baseball writing prize.

Submissions are reviewed on an erratic, rolling basis. We do not guarantee a response within 90 days or between 3 to 6 months. If our turnaround time is negatively affecting your chi, email us.
