Now in the main method of Display.java, instantiate a new BlogPost. -- Issue

Display.java 
import com.example.BlogPost;

public class Display {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
  BlogPost myBlogPost = new BlogPost();
    System.out.printf("this is a blog post : %s %n", blogPost);

  }
}

com/example/BlogPost.java

package import com.example;
public class BlogPost(){
}

Answer I'm sure is simple, minds drawing a blank.

Hi Dillon,

You've created a new instance correctly:

BlogPost myBlogPost = new BlogPost();

Then you reference a different instance in the subsequent line: 

System.out.printf("this is a blog post : %s %n", blogPost);

So, you can either change myBlogPost to blogPost or the other way round.

Steve.
