Usually what stops me is if don't like something about the story. In the current work-in-progress, I didn't like the main character and couldn't relate to him. So I had to figure out a way to reconnect with the character.(less)

“Love destroys people. It’s emotional heroin. Not that I know much about shooting up.”
Benjamin Haymond, Shadows Within the Fog

“There in those moments beside her, I discovered a world so infinitely large that my past with its disappointments and insecurities seemed insignificant.”
Benjamin Haymond, Shadows Within the Fog

“Patty was the most religious of all of us. She was a devout Catholic. As a child, she once told my father that she wanted to enter into a convent so she could protect the rest of us from damnation. He found it charming. I didn’t.”
Benjamin Haymond, Shadows Within the Fog

“I wish I loved the human Race, I wish I loved its silly face, and when I'm introduced to one, I wish I thought "what jolly fun"!”
Sir Walter Alexander Raleigh

“Love destroys people. It’s emotional heroin. Not that I know much about shooting up.”
Benjamin Haymond, Shadows Within the Fog

“Before meeting her, I didn’t believe in love at first sight. But after meeting her, I no longer believed that I had not believed in love at first sight. As soon as I looked into her eyes, I might have heard Jeff Healy crooning about what I did or said to turn her angel eyes my way in the back of my mind.”
Benjamin Haymond, Shadows Within the Fog

“... ,God and I had an agreement that I would leave him alone and he would leave me alone. But now I needed him. I was in love with Katie and I knew it was real.”
Benjamin Haymond, Shadows Within the Fog
