    Are you full-time freelance? How much do you need to live on? Then consider work expenses, insurance, retirement, SS, Medicare tax. I just realized how high tax on freelance income is. I used to write so much off I never really noticed.

    As far as flat/per hour. I recently shifted to work for a flat amount with a loose estimate. I try to come in a bit lower than the estimate and think of it in terms of a range of hours it may take. If it is on the long end of the range it still needs to be an acceptable hourly amount.
