Sharon Calleja

Sharon Calleja was born on the 20 July 1978 and lives in Xagħra, Gozo.

Because of the fact that she was raised in Canada, the Maltese language was her second language. But since younger age, she has shown a keen interest in languages and literature.

At the age of 8 years, Sharon started to write stories and poems. She used to give them to her classmates, for them to read them. She loved expressing herself through her stories and poems, and sharing her stories with her friends. She has always felt that writing stories was part of her. When she was 12 years old, she inscribed herself in a course for writing in London because she truly believed that in that way, she would be more capable of expressing her thoughts and stories in a more professional manner.

Sharon is an author, publisher, director and actress of various local tele-dramas in Malta and even scripts which were acted on stage and also television. In the year 2011, Sharon was awarded the Għarb Cultural Award for achievement of the script story of Rubini which was a teleserial that made a huge success in Malta. After that, she also wrote Eklissi, which was a drama in the horror genre, airing on a local television station. In both, she also was part of the cast.

She has also written, co-produced and presented Corpus Delicti which was a local, educational television program aiming to educate in the fields of crime, law and local and foreign crime cases.
