During an Instagram Live with Kaia Gerber, Lena Dunham confided that she is currently working on a new book. While planning a work of fiction, the creator of Girls ended up writing about her.
“I wrote a short story book that was to be published. I was going to publish it, but life decided otherwise - you have to go where your attention is. I was distracted by a lot of personal issues going on: transitions, health concerns, separations, and then I thought, I have to write this down and it became an autobiography, ”said Lena Dunham.
Lena Dunham previously published an autobiographical work in 2014 titled Not That Kind of Girl: A Young Woman Tells You What She ' s ' Learned '. This new work should appear next year.
An inexhaustible subject
Lena Dunham also continues to share her existential reflections with her fans. A few days ago, the actress and director celebrated two years of sobriety in a long Instagram post. A real "miracle" for Lena Dunham who, nevertheless, refuses to take things for granted.

Today I have 2 years clean and sober. It's a miracle I can't take for granted no matter how hard I try. Two years ago I didn't think I needed to get sober. But a quiet voice inside me said, “lay it down for a moment” and then other, louder voices helped me keep it up. To those voices- you know who you are and thank you x infinity *** My heart pounds thinking of who I was two years ago. I was afraid to change but what actually happened was that I became myself again, a young and carefree self, a self who was clear in intention and bold in action and - most of all- free. We know, now more than ever, that we all need to be free *** When I first got sober, people often told me it was the best choice they'd ever made, the achievement of which they're most proud. That seemed crazy- NOT doing something was the best thing they'd ever done ??? But they were right- not using and removing secrecy and self harm from my repertoire, has given me a life beyond my wildest dreams. Not because it's perfect, but because it is really and truly mine *** There is real help available for people who feel they are beyond hope. So many people are waiting for you across a shaky but time tested bridge *** Now here is a picture of me smiling just because :)

To reveal so much on the networks, one might fear that the star has nothing more to say in his new autobiography. But that is forgetting that Lena Dunham has an inexhaustible subject that fascinates her above all: her own person.
