Fellow copywriter Nick Asbury got wind of this blog, and tweeted some suggestions or, as he put it, requests for ships with certain names. Tempted as I was to tackle the USS Martin Amis, LeftAlign immediately summoned an image along the lines of the one above. I think I might prefer to re-name her Ragged Right, but both work admirably. She seems to have become a sort of hotel/sightseeing pleasure vessel, cruising here past one of the galaxy’s more spectacular nebulae. I was quite pleased to get a suggestion of leading in there, and even a drop cap created by the cruise corporation’s logo.
