Whatever program you use should have "generate new key pair" (or something like that) under the "keys" menu.

You can also do it from a command prompt:
gpg --gen-key

In GPA, go to Keys, then click New Key, enter your desired public name, enter either fake email address or tormail address, then choose whether you want to make backup of key now or wait for later.
