Empar Moliner (Santa Eulàlia de Ronçana, 1966) began her professional career as an actress, but she became well-known thanks to her ongoing collaboration with media outlets. In 2000 she won the Josep Pla prize with the novel Feli, esthéticienne [Feli, Stylist] and became an acclaimed writer with T’estimo si he begut [I Love You When I’m Drunk], which was recently made into a successful stage play, and Busco senyor per amistat i el que sorgeixi [In Search of a Man for Friendship and Possibly More]. In 2015 she won the Mercè Rodoreda award for Tot això ho faig perquè tinc molta por [I’m Doing All This Because I’m So Scared], and in 2022 the Ramon Llull prize for her latest novel Benvolguda [Dear], which was the bestselling book during this year’s Sant Jordi.
