Posting to the 'About' page

post to the About page — When I try to post to the “About” page, it shows on the “Home” page instead. What do I need to do?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Your About page is to be used for the purpose of posting a brief biography as well as a blog description. http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2013/06/17/creating-an-effective-blog-description/
It gives visitors context for the information found elsewhere on the site as it focuses on providing information About the blogger (who you are) and About the blog (what the purpose of the blog is).
Creating an About page is a way to introduce yourself to new visitors and let visitors know what kind of content to expect to read in your blog.
Your front page of the blog by default at http://cubancapers.wordpress.com/ is where your published posts are displayed.
You have two choices on any blog
(1) All posts on the front page.
(2) A static front page and posts on a different page.By default the front page of your blog displays all published posts (not pages) in reverse chronological order, with the most recently published post on top. That is for the convenience of your returning visitors who will not be happy to have to click through an About page every time they visit your blog as they come to read your most recently published content. Creating that situation can make some visitors annoyed – so annoyed that they stop following your blog.
However, if you do not want all the posts to show on the front page, then you can create a static front page called for example “Welcome” for your site and a “Blog” page for all published posts (not pages) to display on in reverse chronological order, with the most recently published post on top.
To do that create two pages first http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/
After you do that you go to > Settings > Reading and make the designation change and click “save changes”.
