    Hi AarAwan,
    Try using the following query:

    SELECT s.story_id, c.category_name, s.story_title FROM categories as c
    INNER JOIN stories as s
    ON c.category_id = s.story_category
    Code (markup):
    Assuming your story_category = INT

    Hope this helps you out,

    Kind regards,

    Maarten
