Hi

Looks like you have too many ) here

mStartPoemsButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick() { startStory();

    }
});  <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Should be mStartPoemsButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener()) { @Override public void onClick() { startStory();

    }
} 

and here

mStartButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick() {
        startStory();

    }
});<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

should be

mStartButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener()) {
    @Override
    public void onClick() {
        startStory();

    }
}

If this answers you your question, please mark question as answered.

Thanks
