Say you have a number of groups, and each of them has a blog application, and you create a draft blog in one of them.
Then you go away for a bit, come back, and you scratch your head and go "where was that blog post?"
Short of going through each application and trying to find the draft blog post, and assuming you don't have administrative rights to run an API query, or a database query, and you only have the user interface.
How do you find it?
The easiest way that I have found to get back to it is by saving the Blog Draft URL. You can get this URL while you are creating the draft blog post and bookmark it in your browser bookmarks to easily get back to. The URL I usually find by:
1. Click save as draft on the blog post
2. Once I get a message saying it was saved as a draft - from that same page I hover over the pencil icon
3. I click on manage blog
4. I click posts
5. I see my draft at the top of the list and under the unpublished tab
6. I click on it and then right click on view and save that URL which will bring me back to that draft.
Christopher G. Stanton I agree with you on the difficult experience for users in finding these drafts.

To work around the challenges, I've done a few updates that aren't perfect, but better than nothing:
