Yahoo Lifestyle Lena Dunham Is Launching A Newsletter For Young Women
Lena Dunham is launching a weekly newsletter called 'Lenny' in September with the help of Girls Executive Producer, Jenni Konner.
Speaking about the project which will provide advice, essays, and product recommendations for young women, the 29-year-old told Buzzfeed, the newsletter will aim to gather “like-minded intellectually curious women and the people who love them."
"Who want to bring change but also want to know, like, where to buy the best tube top for summer that isn’t going to cost your entire paycheck."

Lenny will be headed up by Jessica Grose, a former Jezebel writer turned Slate editor, will be editor-in-chief and Laia Garcia of Rookie will be associate editor.
“The internet feminism conversation can be very circular and limiting and exclusive,” Grose said.
"And it saddens me to see that a lot of the competition is about saying ‘you’re not feminist enough’: trying to kick people out of feminism rather than bring them in. And Lenny is an opportunity to say, 'There are many different types of feminisms, and we can work together.'"
