My handwriting is joined-up, but I can't remember how (or whether) I was taught joined-up at school.
I have redesigned my lower case Ts over the years. In the beginning they suffered from me not lifting the pen at all --- they looked something like a cursive lower case B, but with the loop being more than closed.
When I was about 13 or 14, I thought this was atrociously untidy, so I started writing it as a simple cross --- it looked like a dagger or a crucifix.
That was a great improvement, but when I started my A levels I started confusing it with my plus signs. So I added a curvy tail. Small letters (eg lower E, lower O) following a lower case T sometimes find themselves sitting over the bowl of the tail; usually they balance on the pointy end. |
