Daniel or Keith,

In this economy you have to do what you feel will work.  Personally I do not
charge much more if any for short term work over long term.  I actually like
short term gigs to fill in to give me time to find more appealing gigs.
Short term gigs can also turn into long term.

I've been consulting for 15 years with the last 13 managing a small (me and a
couple others) consulting company in the Chicago area.

I like your verse and I agree with it.
