page/posts?
-
How do I create added posts within a “page”? I see other blogs which have different “pages” that have a variety of posts which pertain to that linked page specifically. For example, I’d like to separate my blog posts via category “pages”. I want to have a “page” called Letters and then include all my posts that are written as letters within that section. I learned how to create the additional “page”, but that only allows me one post. I want the “menu” type “page to categorize my posts.
I’ve searched and googled for this answer for hours. The closest I came was some computer script lingo which I can’t understand and would even know exactly *where* to put that code or if I’m even properly understanding what that code does. I’m terribly code illiterate. Is there any help for me? That I might be able to understand and utilize to solve this issue?The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Technically the answer is you can’t because there is only one page in any blog that you can post to. However, you can create the impression of doing what you suggest.
You can create a custom menu and include exactly what you want in it while excluding what you don’t want from it.
http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/Among the most common misconceptions is that bloggers fail to understand is
(1) there is only one page we can post to in any blog and
(2) the static pages http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/ they create do not automatically update.Only the dynamic pages like Categories, Tags and Archives created by the software when we publish a post we that we have assigned Categories and Tags too will update automatically update with new posts.
By default the front page of the blog is the post that displays all posts in your blog. Though there is only one dynamic page in a blog for posts (not pages) http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/ and we cannot post to more than that one page, we can create the appearance that we have posted to more than one page.
We organize posts by assigning categories to them. You can create a custom menu and add the dynamic categories pages into the custom menu.

Ignore the script; it’s not going to work on a WordPress.com blog.
