I'm making this post from a blog client called semagic. For those of you who want to publish your stories to your blog and still want them to keep the original format that you used on whatever word processor you use, this is a good product for you.
I'm composing my stories in Word '07, then I'll copy and paste them into the edit window of the Semagic client. Semagic will give you two options - paste text only or paste with HTML. Make sure your story is ready to go before you copy and paste. You don't want to have to edit it later. Choose to paste with HTML and semagic will adjust html tags to automatically get your document looking like it did on your word processor.

I used to use this same program for my livejournal, and I was thrilled to learn that it works for Blogger AND wordpress too.
Links to documents are also found at the above URL.
Enjoy
