Hello folks, I’m Zachary O’Shea, author and ttrpg designer, Zack most of the time. I’ve been writing horror fiction, running ttrpg games, and designing worlds for the last three decade in my own little circles. Over the last few years, I’ve branched out to the greater world at large. You can find out more about me and my work at https://www.zacharyoshea.com/ but here’s a brief summary if you will indulge me.
Box of Teeth is my horror TTRPG Blog. Most days it’s dedicated to horror-themed monsters for D&D 5e, with a new mimic every Monday for #justanothermimicmonday. Most of the monsters follow clusters and themes already established from Universal Antagonists that are plug and play villains with their own minions, to the Demon Winds which are Weird West themed monsters, to all sorts of fiendish things in between. I always try to find horror niches not yet explored and do a special monster a day every October. You can find more about it here. https://boxofteeth.blogspot.com/
I also have a few Indie RPGs I’ve authored such as Best Served Cold using the Breathless system. Do you like the Crow and want to wallow in some 90s goth action aesthetic? Then check out Best Served Cold and other games here. https://zwoshea.itch.io/
Lastly, I am a horror author as well with a novella, Grease Paint, coming out soon. It’s the first in a urban horror/fantasy series with some action mixed in.It’s up for preorder now at https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BQH4JJVY
BUUUUT there is a short story in the same horror universe, Candlelight Vigil, that I’m posting in parts here on Tumblr. If you don’t want to wait you can always read the story in its entirety here https://www.wattpad.com/story/329457781-candlelight-vigil
Welp, that’s the creative side of me in a nutshell. Thank you for your time and attention, I appreciate it because I know how valuable it is. I look forward to sharing more of my vision and ideas over the years here on Tumblr. Have a good one and keep working on those dreams so they don’t turn into nightmares.
