To locate drafts Dashboard > Posts > All Post > Drafts
http://soundsofawomanssilence.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit.php?post_status=draft&post_type=postProvided you did not create the post in the new Beep Beep Boop editor where it’s saved only on your browser, and is not auto-saved to the servers for your blog I can help you with this.
If the post was created on the dashboard of your own blog at Dashboard > Posts > All Posts > Add New then you ought to be able to recover a lost post or page from revisions if needs be.

See also if applicable > restoring from trash http://en.support.wordpress.com/trash/#restoring-from-trash(If you are referring to a Page then see here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/page-revisions/)
I recommend:
1. Always create your posts on the dashboard of your own blog at
2. Dashboard > Posts > All Posts > Add New
3. Immediately after creating a post and entering a title click the save draft link. Thereafter, “click save draft” frequently.
4. Always allow pages to fully load before clicking any other links.
5. Never leave a post or page open for content creation or editing and walk away from it, or open another tab in the same blog and work on something else while it is still open. Save it properly and return to edit it later.
6. Use an offline blog editor so you have backups on your own computer http://en.support.wordpress.com/xml-rpc/If you cannot locate a revision or restore from Trash then the content has been lost and cannot be recovered.

Hi,
I’m really thankful for your help and recommendations that I’ll certainly follow next time…I think that unfortunately I lost the post…I tried all the options you suggested but found no trace of it as it has never existed…This was at text actually I posted right after the creation of the blog and I saw it posted! but then I closed the page and then open it using the link I received on my account and posted a second text…but the first was gone! I think I published it on the blog before it was activated maybe…I don’t know…I’m very bad at these things…Anyway many thanks again for your time and consideration…will pay more attention next time :)

I think that unfortunately I lost the post.
That’s so sad. I have had the same thing happen to me. You’re welcome and best wishes for better endings in the future.
