A webcomic. In the main panel, a close-up of a glum-looking curly-haired man (Charles Dickens), who is thinking 'Writer's block. Writer's block. Writer's block.' He overhears two sailors chatting at the docks behind him; one sailor enthusiastically says, 'An' I built me boat to look like a naked lady! A sail of two titties!' Inspired, Dickens thinks 'By God.' A caption reads: 'A lucky day for Charles Dickens.' In the votey aftercomic, Dickens sits hunched over a sketch of a woman, thinking 'No, nevermind, the tittie sail idea isn't working. I'll do something about the French Revolution.' (A reference to Dickens' actual novel about the French Revolution, A Tale of Two Cities.)
