You deserve it! Chronica Feudalis is filled with nice concepts, the writing is a delight, the mechanics are streamlined, it comes with an open license to "spread the love" and I also appreciate that you were readily available to talk about it. It is the thread I started on The RPG Haven which really sold me on the game. Many months later, I now have a physical copy. I'm hoping to see many more projects from you, and may they all make a profit! I finally bought it january 12th, so yeah, it certainly continues to sell :)

I spend an awfully large amount of my time thinking about my games in which I'm playing with dice mechanics in my head or considering how I'm going to write something. But this isn't time sitting in front of the computer and actually producing something. Still, it's a necessary step in the process for me. It's always intrigued me, Fred, how you've made a career out of the industry. Obviously Evil Hat is not the only piece of the puzzle, but combined with Hero Games and your other projects, you seem to have carved out a way to make a go of it. Nice. And we're all looking forward to those upcoming Evil Hat projects! For myself, the big question in paying myself for my time is where do I draw the line for what time should I pay myself for?

That's probably much smaller than $20/hour, but I'm also making a deliberate decision to make sure that EHP has as much money as possible in the coffers to fund current and future projects.
