Narrative:

At XA10 local hours, I had landed runway 27 and instructed to turn off on taxiway east to hold short runway 22L. I acknowledged to hold short and taxied on taxiway east. On taxiway east I noticed my left landing light was out. I cycled the switch to see if that helped. It didn't, but at the same time I was unaware in the dark that the hold short line for runway 22L was so close. I was focused further down where a B757 was holding for runway 22R. In the dark I saw the faded paint of the red runway 22L hold line and faded runway 22L stripes (hold line) pass behind me. I hit brakes and stopped 20 ft beyond the hold lines. I immediately called tower, told them I taxied about 15 ft beyond runway 22L hold short lines. He responded, not to me, but to a jet landing. He told them to go around. After that, normal communications occurred and in stages, issued me to parking without any unusual verbiage or any sign that anyone was angry. All seemed 'ok' since I admitted what I did and company went around just fine.
