Done. Or, more accurately, begun.

It'll take a while of steadily rolling on this before I'll be ready to pimp the website, and I'm not going to go out of my way to show this around until there are a few more pages up.

But if you're here and if you see this, huzzah for showing up for the beginning of something that could be very awesome.

Also, a big thank you to my man Reagan for helping me get this far with his encouragement and teaching me the basics of shading and fabric wrinkles!

Pieces of Eight is not exactly a "webcomic". True, it's on the internet, and it's published on a schedule, and the sequential nature of the art puts it in the comic medium, but most of those things are incidental.

In my mind Pieces of Eight is a book that happens to come out six pages a week, two pages each Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. It was written with this kind of release in mind, but it was also written with the pacing/progression of a book in mind, not a strip comic with a payout each update.

For a little peek into the meta development, see the post that kicked off the project here, and the one-month follow up here.

Pieces of Eight is not about pirates. The name was chosen because a) there are eight major players, b) one of them is a Magic 8 Ball, and c) anything else would give away more than I am willing to tell about the plot.

I hope you enjoy the show.
