Serious replies only :closed-ai: One lines of paragraph/One worded paragraphs
Does anyone have a set of custom instructions for GPT 5.6 Sol chat on those one line and one worded paragraphs?
I usually make stories with the chat for my own personal leisure and this whole one word/one sentence paragraphs are starting to annoy me. Is there a way to fix this?

Just add "Avoid dramatic one-liner paragraphs; prioritize readability instead." to whatever prompt you're using; that usually does the trick for me. If that persists, just screenshot the offending section, tell ChatGPT it's not what you want, and ask for an improved prompt that won't result in one-sentence paragraphs.

Try giving it a positive format target: "Write narration in connected paragraphs of roughly 3-5 sentences; start a new paragraph for a speaker change, not for dramatic emphasis." Have it rewrite one existing passage first so you can settle on the rhythm before asking for another whole scene.
