newbie mask help

[mayo]

I lost my password for a veracrypt container and have a good idea what the basis for the password may be.  I created a hcmask file containing my masks:

Code:

hashcat99?l
hashcat99*?l
password98?l

Ran the attack:

Code:

hashcat64 -a 3 -m 13721 -o PasswordHits.txt hash13 masks/mayo.hcmask --force

and the program paused with the following output:

Code:

The wordlist or mask that you are using is too small.
This means that hashcat cannot use the full parallel power of your device(s).
Unless you supply more work, your cracking speed will drop.
For tips on supplying more work, see: https://hashcat.net/faq/morework

I read the morework FAQ but do not understand why the attack pauses itself. when I Resume , it just pauses again.
