If i go

stories = Story.find_by_genre_id(8)

The model retrieves the first record with genre_id = 8...why doesnt it return all the stories with genre_id = 8?

Note:

Code:
class Genre < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :stories
end

class Story < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :genre
end

Yup, that's how it is designed. If you know you have more than one record, use find_all_by_genre_id() instead of find_by_genre_id()

That almost works, just use find() instead of find_by_id().

EDIT:
Actually, that works too! Sorry.
