Hi , I have a problem I can not see where is my mistake because my paragraph is between <body> and </body>.
<!--This is my story, but you should insert your own story below. Use the <p> tag to start a new paragraph and </p> at the end of each paragraph.-->
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body> <p> "My first paragraph!" </p> </body>
</html>

might be the way you wrote the "" around your text inside the <p> or could be you need to add a space between the <!--and the text. Because it looks like it takes that as a html statement. Maybe remove it entirely would prob pass then.
this code works.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<p> My first paragraph </p>
</body>
</html>

56,413 PointsYou've done a good job; the checker just has a small problem. It's the first line at the top, the HTML comment. Even though it is normally ignored it's causing issues with the challenge checker. Probably because there are p tags inside the comment.
I've checked your answer, and it will pass as long as the first line is removed.
