Regarding your pricing, my best advice is to set an hourly rate that you'd like to pay yourself, and base your design work off of that. Don't lowball yourself and try and stick to it as much as practical. And keep in mind that there will always be someone willing to work for less or free, and that's just how it goes. You can spend the time on 5 jobs and get paid properly for 1 and lowballed on 4, or you can do 1 and get paid properly for 1. Your wallet will look the same and you won't have wasted your time.
Then prepare to be dismayed at how little your clients will value creative work, even though they'll be using these to promote and make money for their events.

I agree with this. Always remeber that if you never lose a job due to price, you are not charging enough.
