charging an hourly rate for my niche skills has been the biggest hack for me over the last 2 years. It let me work 10-20% of the time and spend the rest travelling, building projects, reading dozens of books, learning a language and picking up many hobbies. 

writing a blog post about my experience right now. if you're thinking about contracting, what would you like to know?
