About Bill Stewart
About the Author
Bill Stewart brings a unique blend of rigorous discipline and relentless curiosity to his writing. A former Marine Auditor with an impressive 42-year career at sea that saw him rise from Boy Seaman to respected Marine Auditor/Marine accident/incident investigator. Bill possesses a deep-seated skill for identifying systemic flaws and uncovering hidden details – abilities honed through decades of high-stakes assessment and analysis. Now a full-time independent author and publisher, he channels this expertise into the realm of Factual Fiction, indulging his love for the detective work inherent in piecing together complex historical narratives.
His fascination with intricate systems, from the principles of nuclear fusion to the mechanics of vintage cars, fuels his drive to understand and explain. Bill enjoys the challenge of figuring things out, a trait evident both in his meticulous research and in his personal life – he proudly owns a fully rebuilt a 1929 Buick Master 50 series Sedan.
With nearly thirty independently published books to his name, Bill Stewart continues to explore compelling stories often missed by the mainstream. Discover more about his work and delve into his extensive catalogue of titles at https://billysbookclub.com.
"My writing journey started with short stories for children, where I explored meaningful life lessons through relatable characters and engaging plots. Over time, my creative path expanded into longer works, from middle-grade fiction to young adult themes, and most recently, two self-published sci-fi novels. I Have to admit the True Crime Genre is one of my favourites, not just the writing, but all the investigative work that goes into the prep for my version of events.
While my writing journey has been relatively quiet so far, with sales mostly in the USA, I’ve always been more focused on the creating rather than seeking the limelight—a trait I attribute to my ADHD. But now, I’m ready to step out of the shadows and connect with a much bigger audience. My aim is to share my stories with readers around the world, and I’m excited for this next chapter.
You can find my books on KDP (Kindle Direct Publishing) under the name Bill Stewart and through Draft2Digital, which has distributed my work to book stores worldwide, including Barnes & Noble and many others.
Thank you for taking the time to explore my journey. Whether you’re looking for heartfelt children’s stories, thrilling sci-fi adventures, or something in between, I invite you to dive into my world of storytelling."
