I can't edit my post - is it a bug or me being clueless?

Something that has  me perplexed is that while my first post has worked perfectly, my second post which is a lot longer, won't let me in to edit it. I'm wondering if there is a post size limit. As I can't edit it, I can't fix the typos, or shorten it, so I'm thinking I'll need to re-post it?

This is the post:

https://steemit.com/conspiracies/@sift666/some-complete-bollocks-that-believers-have-fallen-for-hook-line-and-sinker

I'm not sure if this is the best way to ask questions here, but I'm new and clueless, and I've never seen anything evolve as fast as Steemit seems to be doing. So I'll just post this and hope for the best. Thanks for all the inspiration.

Checking back the next day, I found I can't update my first post now, but I can still update this one - what I wanted to say was this is a really helpful post about Steemit - https://steemit.com/steemit/@mindover/steemit-for-dummies-like-me-everything-you-need-know-to-get-started

@corbettreport was reporting something weird with editing yesterday.   You might reach out to him and see if he found a solution.

Thanks - today it let me straight in to edit the post, but when I pressed update it said "transaction failed" and didn't post the update. I guess things are still beeing ironed out and I'll try again tomorrow
