Hi Jake, you are close but there are a few issues with your code:

First, you have an aside around the header, which shouldn't be there. Asides are meant for content that is indirectly related to the main content of the page.

I completed the challenge and here was the code at the end that passed the challenge: 

<main>
      <h2>The Main Articles</h2>   
      <article>
      <h3>My Favorite HTML Courses</h3> 
      <p>Fusce semper id ipsum sed scelerisque. Etiam nec elementum massa. Pellentesque tristique ex ac ipsum hendrerit, eget <a href="#">feugiat ante faucibus</a>.</p>
      </article>
      <article>
      <h3>10 Handy CSS Features</h3> 
      <p>Pellentesque habitant morbi tristique senectus et netus et malesuada fames ac turpis egestas. Vestibulum ante ipsum primis in faucibus orci luctus et <a href="#">ultrices posuere</a>.</p>    
      </article>
    </main>

    <aside>
      <h3>Follow Me on Social Media:</h3>
      <ul>
        <li><a href="#">Twitter</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">Facebook</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">LinkedIn</a></li>     
      </ul>
    </aside>

So in your code you have two closing tags for </main>. The first one is correct (enclosing the articles), so just delete the tag you have after the closing ul. You then need to put the aside around the h3 "follow me on social media" and the links, and then you should be good to go! Happy coding!
