I am working on a simple custom fact skill for Amazon Alexa and trying to learn more about how to make my own skills!

When I am using the "Test" function in the developer console, asking Alexa "Alexa, open [invocation name]" works fine, and she will present a fact. However, saying "Alexa, open [invocation name] and tell me something" will result in "Hmm, I'm not sure". "Tell me something" is one of my sample utterances. Nothing besides the initial invocation is working. I used the template provided in the Alexa skill kit to build my skill.

Alexa, Open [invocation name]

should open your skill.

Alexa, Ask [invocation name] to [utterance]

should be the right thing if you are directly asking it to tell something.
