I have done everything but the test keeps telling me to use the correct story format for the first story. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. Help!

```js
let adjective="old";

Welcome to the forum @Mercyk

Please remove the following text from the first console log:

> [@Mercyk](#):
>
> `[firstStory] `

Check the spacing of the `firstStory` text.

You can use either concatenation or template literals to join the text and variable.

Happy coding

Welcome to the forum @MartUmbr

It is great that you solved the challenge, but instead of posting your full working solution, it is best to stay focused on answering the original poster’s question(s) and help guide them with hints and suggestions to solve their own issues with the challenge. [How to Help Someone with Their Code Using the Socratic Method](https://www.freecodecamp.org/news/how-to-help-someone-with-their-code-using-the-socratic-method/)

We are trying to cut back on the number of spoiler solutions found on the forum and instead focus on helping other campers with their questions and definitely not posting working solutions.

Happy coding
