I believe it's because Photoshop don't see these "selections" as one selection. As you would surely see on your screen, when you hold the CTRL key and press the layer with your two words, you actually get a selection for each of the letters, and Photohop wont alow you to contract this... So now what to do? Well, I would go to the selection menu (while the letters are selected) choose the inverse function. Now you have a selection that's all together... can you follow me? hope so... But now try choosing select - modify - expand with about maybe 3 pixels. Then inverse the selection again. And now you should have about the same result as in the tutorial, and you can go on with the next Step.

Good luck

Sounds really strange, don't know what could be the problem then, if your on the text layer and have selected the letters of it...
