Hi Heidi -
It sounds like you have made up your mind. If you got your client through the same site as we talked about before I would caution you too.
Before you sign up, see if the anonymous thing is still negotiable (provided you haven't already). Sometimes people say stuff that just rolls off the tongue and sounds more set than it is.
Also, give yourself an out. I can't tell you how many contracts I wanted out of before the first month was over, and found myself thrashing around mentally like a racoon in a leg trap. It's such a relief to know you can renegotiate in 6 months, or whatever.
As an added incentive, you can offer to help with promotion, say, showing up at unverilings, writing your own press releases, or something. It would be a shame to do a bunch of work that wouldn't add to your portfolio, due to ownership problems.
I totally understand where you're coming from and think it's wise to compromise when the hounds are a-barkin' at the door. Just don't lock yourself into anything you'll regret when success rolls around again.
