How to Create a Post

It's quite simple: Click under posting, New Post, then create a title and type away! Two important things to remember:

1. SAVE everything! Save as draft allows you to save. but..........
2. Remember to click PUBLISH POST when you're done, or it won't end up on your blog. You can preview (it's the on the top right hand section of this little window). And, if you go into Edit Posts, you can publish something that you forgot to post, and make changes and additions at any time.

If you want to add a word document, you have 2 options:

1. If you have Word 2008/201o, you can publish directly to your blog.  Under File, Choose Publish or Save and Send.  Follow the instructions to post directly to your blog (know that it will end up on the first page of your blog, so you may need to go back and change dates if that's not what you want....
2. If not, then you need to either create or upload your document to Google Docs (which you have, since Google owns Blogger). Under the main Google Homepage, across the top you'll see Web, Images, etc.  The last one says More.  Click on that, then on Documents.  You can simply cut and paste your document into a Google Doc.  Don't forget to save! Then, you need to click"share","publish to web", then save the web address that the item has become.  Then, you simply insert it as a link.......
