"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
David, I have that book, but haven't gotten around to reading it yet. I'll kick it up a couple notches in the queue.
Kate, let me know if you're interested in Tropicalia after the book. I've got a bunch, and it's on the expensive side so I could send you some.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
aurelia, my impression is that adjunct faculty basically make zero dollars. Or like one or two dollars, tops. But that's as much as I know.

What I don't know is what would be reasonable fee. Any thoughts/advice from the hivemind?
This is going to be hard to judge without knowing their standard contracts. We pay $5000 at my large public university. Nationally known private universities pay more. On the other hand, the local community college pays $850.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

For what time period? Per semester?

If it doesn't at least cover gas and lunch I'm gonna pass.

That it should do. I just know my mom teaches because she likes it, not because of the money -- it makes her nowhere near her regular consulting rate, even after having taught the same class for a while, which brings the prep time needed way down.

this is true. when I taught at the Law School, I made about 10% of what a full professor made. and they only taught one more class a semester than I did!!!
