    There is no @ in your blog's URL (@ is only for email addresses) The correct URL is http://maycares.wordpress.com/ Please check the post visibility settings on the post that you are having trouble publishing. Make sure the post visibility is "public".
    Protected – The post is protected with a password you set. Any user that has the password can view a protected post.
    Private – Posts are only visible to blog Editors and Administrators. Private posts are not visible in Blog Surfer, feeds, or in any search. A post can be private without being password protected. http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/post-visibility/

    Drafts are unpublished posts. Are you sure the post is not a draft post?

    Also sometimes people are confused on the differences between posts and pages. Are you sure you aren't referring to a page?

    As Volunteers can't see previews of drafts and don't have backend access to blogs I'm flagging it for their attention. Please post the title of the draft post here so Staff know which one you are referring to.

    Is it okay to publish the post immediately? If so, I'd like to try it and see what happens.

    Isolated problem, 1st post of my blog can no longer be updated. Even with the auto save after 2 min. all that is visible is 3 photos and one paragraph. Without editing any of the restored last version (which I have only seven left) by applying the update most of the format disappears. I've backed up the post, tried other browsers but found that this post is the only one that is effected with this problem. I'm glad to say for me, this is my first problem I've ever had at WordPress. Now hows that for a track record, but this one I have no clue. Here is the post I'm having trouble with and thanks team, for I love my job and you.

    mayogirl, it seems to have published without issue for me. Were you seeing any errors before?
