I am having a hard time accomplishing this same concept. I admit that I am a newbie to Drupal, but a teaser box with a link would be a great module. I've looked at the module suggested above and it doesn't quite get there because it assumes one format. I like the way certain sites have their blog roles, i.e. politico dot com and huffington post do a nice job with this. Please let me know if you've solved this.

There isn't a lot of information to go on, but it sounds like you want to use Views to create a custom block with teasers going to your most recent(?) blog posts. In Views, you can set the title of the teaser to be a link to your node. Is that what you are looking for?
