Narrative:

After landing on runway 28R at pbi; I was instructed to exit the runway onto runway 32 and back taxi runway 32 to taxiway echo. I was advised to expedite my taxi as there was another aircraft on short final. I believed that I was exiting runway 28R onto runway 32 by turning right; when I found that I had turned early and was going onto the runway shoulder. At this time I stopped and advised the tower of the situation and was advised to turn back onto runway 28R and back taxi to taxiway K. I advised that I was blocked by a runway sign and was forced to taxi around this sign to reenter the runway. I back taxied runway 28R as instructed; and exited onto taxiway K and east to parking. Due to the delay in taxi from the runway; the tower controller was heard to call the landing traffic to make a go-around. This flight climbed to 1;000 ft and went around to land. There was no further conversation regarding this matter between any pilots; controllers or others as far as I know. My mistake in making the turn when I did; due to nighttime conditions; and airport lighting caused this situation. The lack of adequate spacing of landing traffic was an additional issue in this case.
