  Aloha aycabroad, This will depend on how your theme is designed. Here is a page with information on excerpts:
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/excerpts/

  Here is a list of sites that support excerpts:

  It looks like your site is set to private. If you let me know what theme you are using, I would be happy to take a look and see if it supports excerpts.

  Hi @aycabroad,

  With the SemPress theme, you can use the More Tag on each post that you’d like to keep from fully displaying on your blog page. Then when the ‘read more’ link is clicked, visitors will be able to see the full content of the post.
