≠ William Glynne-Jones (1907–1977) was a Welsh author. ==Early life and career== William Glynne-Jones was an Anglo Welsh Novelist, Short story writer,Broadcaster and Journalist. He was born and brought up in Llanelli and went to Llanelly boys County School. His love of literature and his childhood desire to be a writer was fed by the books read in Llanelli library. He had to work between the ages of 16 and 36 as a steel foundry ‘moulder’ at the Glanmor Foundry. After cycling home and having a tin bath he tapped away in the evenings at his typewriter. He was a fluent Welsh speaker. He coped with the physical handicap of a cleft palate and hare lip and overcame a speech impediment all his life. He was released from the foundry, on medical grounds while his wife and son remained initially in Wales, in 1943. He went to pursue his ambition to earn his living as a free lance writer and novelist in London. His timeless stories for children and adults were broadcast weekly on Children's hour and regularly on the mid morning story hour by the BBC. He wrote under the exact pen name of William Glynne-Jones. He did this not through ostentation but to distinguish himself from other contemporary Anglo Welsh writers with similar names. 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「William Glynne-Jones」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
