Hi Brid,

Actually, that question, is what the original question was.  Come on all
you shy folks out there.  You don't have to tell us exactly what you 
charge, if that is unsettling, the goal here is to find out how you come
up with your numbers.  What is the magic calculation that you work with?

Although; Brid brings up a good point, I have always wondered why it
seemed that most folks charged less for their workshops than their
shows.  On most workshops that we do, we still have to prepare for them,
usually carry as much crap to the location as you would for a show, and
are often expected to provide some of the materials.  Even if they are
"Found Objects", they probably required some prep time, i.e. washing, 
cutting, and that cost time and time is money.

Next contestant.

Best,

Liz
