Good to see that everything is back to normal.

That's my feeling as well. I have a regular client who wants to switch from flat fee to per-click, which would represent a pretty drastic pay cut for me. So that has me weighing my options--do I stay in but try to negotiate some terms of my own, like downside protection or non-exclusivity? Or do I just strike out on my own? This isn't my primary income source, so I have some flexibility.

Why would you want to assume risk for your client's business decisions? There is a reason he thinks he stands to gain from such an arrangement. If you're willing to walk away, just go back with an offer you would find acceptable. Actually, ask for more than that, in the event you decide to negotiate down.

Apropos, I think. (Artist draws ridiculous quotations from clients.)
