To create a new Blog post, you will want to access the "Blog" section on the Toolbar by clicking "Manage Website" then "Blog". Then, simply click the 
button.
Alternately, you can click "New Post" on the Blog Posts Component Toolbar if the Component has already been added.
If this component has not been added to your site, you will need to make sure you add it to a content location on your site to ensure the posts display.
Details
The post Title can be changed on this page. The Content Templates in the top of pane allow you to choose a preset layout to make creating a blog post in some common styles with pictures easily.
You can change the Publish setting for the entry. If you are editing a post, it will already be published, however new posts will be able to be saved as a draft for later editing and posting. This will be verified in the "Manage Posts" area. The Date Published time and date can be modified simply in the Blog Post Options area so you can have the proper setting when the entry is ready to be published.
The Auto Save Every Minute option allows you to use our auto save feature, allowing you to be sure your content won't be lost should there be an issue during editing.

Adding Read More
You can insert a 'Read More' into the body of your blog post to separate your post content between what displays on your website, and the rest of the content (including the pre-read more content!) which will display on the page dedicated for all post content.

This is most commonly used to keep neat and tidy the page where the blog posts are appearing - using just a portion of the full post - serving as a "preview" of your post, with a way for readers to click on a link if they are interested in reading the rest of the post.
