Dylan Callens

About

Dylan Callens grew up in Delhi, Ontario. From a young age, he was always interested in writing; however, in high school, his interests were focused more towards music. He dreamed of being famous in a heavy metal band named Nothing Sacred. Unfortunately, the band wasn't all that good, so fame and fortune never transpired.

Afterwards, Dylan moved to Sudbury, Ontario to attend Laurentian University. While attending, he wrote for the university paper, Lambda, as a columnist, then news editor. Afterwards, he became the Program Director at CKLU radio. Somewhere during that time, Dylan was able to graduate with a degree in English and philosophy. 

With such a heavy demand for philosophers in the workplace, Dylan decided to attend teacher's college. He continues to live and teach in Sudbury, Ontario.

<p>Here is one of my favorite reviews:</p> <p><span style="color:rgb(125,123,122);font-family:sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:28px;">&quot;Operation Cosmic Teapot&quot; is one of those books that I'm really glad I had the opportunity to read; it was such an enjoyable and humorous story. I loved the concept of this book: Gods working in a corporate calling center ran by a board of dead philosophers with Nietzsche as the C.E.O. and Freud as the company's &quot;high&quot; psychoanalyst, all the makings of an amazingly satirical and entertaining book. Kudos and thanks to author Dylan Callens for such a great reading experience! I look forward to reading more of his work.</span><br style="color:rgb(125,123,122);font-family:sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:28px;" /><span style="color:rgb(125,123,122);font-family:sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:28px;">I recommend this book to anyone and everyone, especially to those with an open mind and a sense of humor!</span></p>
