Maisonneuve is thrilled to announce that Nour Abi-Nakhoul will be coming on board as the new associate editor, starting with the Summer 2023 issue. Nour is a writer and fact-checker whose work has appeared in Catapult, SHARP, The Cut, Chatelaine, and more. She is based in Montreal, and her debut novel will be coming out on Penguin’s Strange Light imprint in 2024.

Outgoing senior editor Sarah Ratchford is moving on to become editor of This Magazine. Their final issue with Maisonneuve is the Spring 2023 issue, on newsstands in April. Maisonneuve wishes Sarah all the best in their new role.

“Sarah is a very talented and compassionate editor who has brought so much to Maisonneuve–I am excited to see what they do over at This Magazine,” says Lucy Uprichard, Maisonneuve’s editor-in-chief. “I am extremely excited to continue the magazine’s work with Nour, whose fresh perspective and strong knowledge of the Canadian literary scene will make for a wonderful addition to the team."
