My storymaker code isn't working...what am I doing wrong?

Hi Ashley,

You have a little bit more wrong with your code than just spaces in your variables, but that's okay because we're here to help! You do have spaces in between "main" and "character" and that is a no-no in JavaScript. You have to remove the spaces so that the variable reads "maincharacter" in any reference to it. There are lots of characters you can use to give separation to words in a variable. A lot of times developers like to use camel case like this: mainCharacter.

Also, as Daniel Hildreth pointed out, "story.js" in the src of the script tag in "index.html" should be "Story.js".

You are also missing a prompt command outside of the parenthesis for place so that you can get some input on that haha

Also, in your line with "story +=" you are referencing a non-existing variable named verb which causes an error in execution. This should instead be skill.

The final thing is that you can just put the story variable into document.write() because otherwise, it comes out all funky! I also added some extra spacing so that some words are not bunched up! :D

var maincharacter = prompt("Enter your name");
var mission = prompt("Enter a verb");
var skill = prompt("Enter a different verb");
//added missing prompt before parenthesis
var place = prompt("Enter a place");
//added some spacing here to make the sentence not squished
var story = "There once was a brave ninja named " + maincharacter + " who dreamed about " + mission + ". ";
//changed verb to skill and added more spacing to avoid
//more squishing :P
story += "One day, the brave ninja decided to go to " + place + " and upon arriving there, learned to " + skill + " instead. ";
//all you need is story otherwise you get a jumble of random words haha
document.write(story);
