NEW YORK, N.Y. – Lenny, the feminist newsletter co-founded by author and “Girls” creator Lena Dunham, is becoming Lenny the publishing imprint.

Random House announced Wednesday that Dunham and Jenni Konner will oversee a line of books featuring “exciting, emerging voices” in fiction and nonfiction. The imprint will launch in 2017, with a “select” number of titles each year.

Random House published Dunham’s bestselling “Not That Kind of Girl” in 2014.
