Agent Information
Agent Bio

Miriam Kriss launched the Codex Literary Agency in 2024.

She doesn't look for specific stories, focusing instead on finding a voice she can fall in love with and champion.

This strategy of taking on only clients she's passionate about has led to six-figure deals for first-time authors and numerous client appearances on the USA Today and New York Times bestseller lists.

She's confident that if someone has the narrative drive to keep her up late turning pages, she can help them do the same.

Her passion is helping writers hone their voices and discover their strengths.
