Linking Different Textboxes Together

Hi, I’m trying to create an L shaped text box, but that requires joining two text boxes together. I have tried using textFormat with masks, but the text formating only works for a defined range of characters, it doesn’t work, or I can’t figure out how to make it work, for the text as a whole so everything can be read in the small part as opposed to just being hidden behind my mask.

So my question is as follows: Can I link two text boxes to make a single, different shaped text box in which all of the information scrolls together? I would love to make this work because it seems like such a simple thing to be able to do, and yet no scouring of the internet or my O’Reilly book has yielded any results.

Here’s the website I’m working on so everyone can get an idea about what I’m trying to do:
