"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/Canada 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."

Who Was Bible John? Scotland’s Most Haunting Unsolved Murder Mystery
Glasgow in the late 1960s was a city alive with music and movement. Dance halls like the Barrowland Ballroom pulsed with laughter, clinking glasses, and the hopeful chatter of strangers looking for a partner — perhaps for the night, perhaps for longer.

Hi everybody,
Well what can i say? my second attempt at sci-fi is on its way folks, its a series of three books varying from 50 pages through to 80 pages, so i guess they are Novellas, but to me and probably you, they are going to be great short reads. just putting the final chapters in now and then its my least fav. task, cover designing. urghh. cant be doing with all the arty farty stuff, but it has to be done as i am riding solo on the publishing as well as the writing.
right then please...
