It is always easier to diagnose these kinds of things if you include the 
exact code you used, and the exact error you got.  Otherwise, it could 
be anything from a typographical error to a usage problem.

Template.respond() returns a normal string, and you should be able to 
pass that directly to Paragraph to produce a flowable.
