Narrative:

I was cleared for the visual runway 8 lws and told to contact the tower. I was cleared to land runway 8 report a two mile final. The tower was working aircraft Y straight in to runway 30. Aircraft Y was in close proximity to the airport and asked the tower controller if he should circle or hold in position for a while. The tower continued aircraft Y in. I reported two mile final and landed uneventfully on runway 8. After landing runway 8 as I rolled out toward the end of the runway I was instructed to turn left at G and stop at the first hold short line. The taxi/hold instruction came towards the end of the roll out and I crossed the first hold short line with the nose of the aircraft before coming to a complete stop. The intent of the controller was to stop me on runway 8 because of a hot spot intersection with two hold short lines with the 'do not cross' side facing opposite the normal orientation. Aircraft Y was well above and past my aircraft when told to go around. I was given instruction on what I was supposed to do. I apologized and was given taxi clearance into the ramp. No further communications between tower/ground and my aircraft occurred.while the taxi/hold short instructions used the proper phraseology; an instruction of 'hold short of golf on runway 8 for landing traffic' would have been more succinct and possibly have prevented the incursion. Had I been told to stop on my runway straight ahead; I would have been well clear of the hold short area. Unfamiliarity with the airport; the intersection; and reduced situational awareness due to non-standard markings contributed to the incursion.

Title: A confusing hold short clearance from LWS Tower resulted in a pilot entering a hot spot on Taxiway G at the confluence of Runways 12/30 and 8/26
