I stole my name!

Lucky for me, book titles can't be copyrighted

Looks like Im gonna have to read it.

On a side note, Bixby wrote the story "It's a Good Life", which Rod Serling turned into the best Twilight Zone episode ever.

Anthony: "You're a bad man. You're a very bad man."

Anthony's father: "Wish it into the cornfield. Please son, wish it into the cornfield, please."

Star Science Fiction Stories no. 2

I have a copy of that. I've not tried to do anything with it. It doesn't look like a renewal search is showing "It's a Good Life" renewed.

Got it.

Thank you!

This is so much better than all this new-fangled Sci-fi being published nowadays with all their Major Concerns and lack of Merriment and Joyfulness.

Arf! Arf!

Bixby only makes me think of "My Favorite Martian" and "The Courtship of Eddie's Father". (Sorry, that disrails this thread!)
