Stuart saw and began to play with words because they gave him an interest that others might have considered insane. Stuart, who is a keen reader of ghost stories and an avid fan of M. R. James, an Edwardian master of the genre, has written several collections of his own. Stuart Hill is also an artist, who sells his work at art fairs in Leicester and the surrounding areas in England. On 25 July 2011, Stuart released a new book on Kindle. ''Tales From Moonshiny Hall'', a collection of ghost stories, was published under the name S. R. Hill. Stuart is releasing a couple of non-fiction books in the 'I Was There!' series called 'Richard III's Court' and 'Viking Invasion'.〔http://www.amazon.co.uk/Richard-IIIs-Court-Was-There/dp/1407145045/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1393357361&sr=1-1〕 Stuart has written a book called "Sorceress" about post-Roman Britain and the struggle between the indigenous Celts and the invading Germanic tribes (Anglo-Saxons). It will be an Arthurian tale with a twist. Merlin and Arthur will not be portrayed as the good guys but as baddies. The book is currently in limbo regarding whether it will ever be released. He is also working on a self-publishing project called "Black Dog". His books have been translated into 18 languages.〔http://www.stuarthillonline.com/index.html〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Stuart Hill (author)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
