It's really pretty simple. The only hard part is setting up formmail.pl.
If you already know how to setup formmail.pl, then just copy the article submission form from the bottom of the following page and change the "to" email address to your own:
http://www.AtHomeBusinessPortal.com/newsletters
If you don't yet know how to setup formmail, this is a chance to learn. Here is the URL to download this free script and set it up:

Basically, this is a generic script that allows you to set up a form on your site and have the results sent to your email address. You can use it for your newsletter signup form, your "Add URL" form and for soliciting article submissions.
Once you have your form setup and tested, be sure to keep track of the authors who submit. A friendly email to them on a monthly basis asking for more articles is a good idea.
If you don't want to mess around with learning formmail right now (and I don't blame you; I only learned a couple months ago), it is very inexpensive to find someone to do it for you. Here is an option for you: Post your project to: http://elance.com This is kind of overkill for such a small project, but it's an option. If you have other work to hire out to Elance, you can bundle this in with it.
Now just sit back and relax. You will be amazed at how quickly you start getting submissions and how many you receive.
Eventually you will receive enough submissions to this form that you will never have to write another article for your newsletter if you don't want to.
