  Your friend needs to register a WordPress account. This is done easily enough, and you can even register to WordPress without registering a blog. Now, YOU need to go…

  Dashboard > Users > Authors & Users

  Go down to where it says ‘Add User From Community’ and enter the e-mail address that your friend used to register his account. Under role, select Contributor. Your friend will be able to write and edit his posts, but he will not be able to publish them. Now click ‘Add User’ and you’re done.
