Her debut was published in 2016 under the title "I thought of siracusa" - a volume of short stories with 13 stories published by the Viennese publisher edition exil. She received consistently positive reviews for her stories. Sabine Schuster from the Literaturhaus Wien writes, for example: "She apparently manages to vividly sketch emotions and conflicts and to capture a decisive moment in the life of the characters who are not at all heroic. The author creates a very specific atmosphere of floating melancholy, the one when reading and remains present for a long time afterwards. This atmosphere is what is special about Ágnes Czingulszki's collection of stories ... "

Czingulszki publishes in Hungarian and German. She is also represented as an author by the Elisabeth Ruge Agency .
