Description

Currently, visitors to the website access the newsletter sign-up by clicking a link in the footer. This punts them to an external MailChimp sign-up form.

The solution we'd like

[ ] Create a dedicated page containing the sign-up form on-site. Only email address should be required, even if we choose to display additional fields.
[ ] Email archives should be included on the sign-up page for those who want to see an example before signing up.
[ ] Link in footer should point to this page instead (or footer should be redesign to contain a simple version of the form itself).

Thank you!
