It depends. Hourly works well if your client has a big budget and you're going to get paid for stuff like research and non-writing time. But I tend to prefer a per-project rate so both parties know what they're getting into and there are no nasty surprises. If it's a small project, do a flat rate. You'll be annoyed if you end up charging an hour and a half for something that actually requires more than that for negotiating, billing, etc. Re: revision and expectations, again it depends on the project. But discuss this with your client ahead of time. Get on the same page. The beauty of being (more or less) your own boss is that you get to set your price, your expectations, etc. based on your level of comfort. Just don't set your rate too low to start because people hate rate raises. You probably don't want to do this for less than $40 an hour unless it's a large project that will really beef up your resume. I know it sounds like a lot, but you don't get paid for a lot of extraneous time you will definitely spend. Finally, don't forget to set aside your tax money right away. You'll be screwed if you try to come up with it at the end of the year
