  I am new here today. I want this blog as a completely private journal, and want to set up another blog under the same username, that will be public, but, would that make my ‘private’ blog less secure, or should i set up another username for the public blog, and keep them both separate? Thank you.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Security is not at issue as all blogs are independent. To change blog visibility to Private go to Dashboard > Settings > Reading scroll to Blog Visibility and choose option 3 .

  If you do not want the two blogs to be associated log out, clear your browser cache and cookies and without logging in again register another username account under a different email address. Then register the second blog under it.
