New York — In the pilot episode of Girls, Lena Dunham's character, Hannah, tells her parents that she believes she's meant to share her writing talent with others.
"I think I may be the voice of my generation," her character said with a pause, "or at least the voice of a generation."
Lena is now providing a voice for other millennials on the HBO comedy series - that follows a group of girls in their mid-20s - on her Twitter account and in her new book, Not That Kind of Girl.
She will be embarking on an 11-city book tour, with warm-up acts that were selected from video auditions. They were tapped to perform without pay, however the Gawker website calculated how much Dunham would make on her advance and from ticket sales for those appearances and spoke out.
