I’m a big proponent of fractional work - which I define as retained half-time or quarter-time work. It’s more stable than hourly freelance, but gives far more autonomy than employment. Some people work one part-time role, while others work multiple fractional roles to earn more money. Even if you’re looking for short-term work, I recommend following the Fractional scene because it’s getting more traction among companies right now - so it’s getting more jobs. I have hired four fractional so far this year. I run a free community for fractional workers, which has a bunch of tips and resources: https://frctnl.xyz https://frctnl.xyz One big takeaway there is to market yourself and post on the monthly HN freelancer thread.
