Default word won't let me put more than one paragraph per page

For some reason, Word is only letting me put completed paragraphs on a page! If the paragraph is going to continue onto the next page, it automatically sets it so that it starts a new page. I want to have a continuous stream of text--I don't care if the paragraph is complete. What's set wrong, and how do I fix it?

Default

Look for the "Keep lines together" option in the Paragraph dialog box, and clear it if it's selected. You may also want to clear the "Widow/orphan control" option in the same dialog box.

To change the defaults, modify the Normal style of your template.
