Madeline Raynor – Editor

I'm an editor with 12+ years of experience shaping clean, engaging books and magazines.

In my nearly 5-year tenure as an editor at Topix Media Lab/Media Lab Books, I took on 20 books and 30 magazines annually. I worked exclusively in nonfiction, diving into books on cooking, cocktails, self-improvement, wellness, crafts, and the outdoors. Clients included Newsweek, Sanrio, Pokémon, Highlights, Mommy Poppins, and John Wayne Enterprises.

Recently, I joined Farm Progress (agricultural journalism) as a copy editor.

Whatever I'm editing, I bring an unflappable work ethic, astonishing attention to detail, and a passion for words. I thrive on making content better—eliminating grammar errors, enhancing clarity, and ensuring everything comes together as a whole, keeping the target audience in mind at every stage.
