Welcome to Joined-up Writing
I got me one of those blog thingies. Finally! No more annoying people with spurious emails.
The title of this blog is a pun, of course. But then again, you knew that. The English call "joined-up writing" what the American's call "cursive writing".
The web is full of joined-up writing: writing joined up to other writing with hyperlinks. I know it sounds pretentious but that's what makes the Web different from a dead tree with bits of burnt dead tree smeared on it.
And then there's Bart Simpson's view of Cursive Writing when writing lines on the chalkboard in the opening to "The Simpssons" episode 2F11.

Cursive, eh? I was always bad at joined-up ...
It's probably better for you than shin-kicking.
