I can't change overnight into a serious literary author. You can't compare apples to oranges. William Faulkner was a great literary genius. I am not.
I have learned not to read reviews. Period. And I hate reviewers. All of them...
You do have to change things as warfare changes.
I've never been a hands-on dad. I'm not ashamed to admit it but you can't run a restaurant and be home for tea at 4:30 and bath and change nappies.
