  There are several desktop applications which you can use to write and publish content for your WordPress.com blog, even without being connected to the internet. You may often hear this referred to as “offline editing.”

  Hope this helps!

  @drnoelle – If you are using a phone, you may be interested in one of the mobile WP apps, which saves a local draft copy until you push it to your site.

  Download Apps for WordPress.com

  @drnoelle FWIW-I just tried this with my WP Android app and could even dictate (FTW) a draft post thanks to Google speech integration. I added a photo from my phone’s gallery to the post and saved it. At that point the WP app notified me that I was offline and saved the draft post to the phone app.

  When I was back online, I opened the WP app and the post and saved the draft post again and this time it uploaded it as a draft to my test site. So entirely usable.
