23. Correction on writer of the story...

Hi friend, I always enjoy your posts, thanks for sharing so much interesting information and commentary
( and thought provoking predictions! )

I actually have a memory from childhood of reading a book of short stories, and I have always remembered the name Jeremy Bixby as the author of that most disturbing story of the young boy, it was years later that I saw the episode on the twilight zone

From Wikipedia....

"It's a Good Life" is a short story by American writer Jerome Bixby, written in 1953. In 1970, the Science Fiction Writers of America selected it for The Science Fiction Hall of Fame, Volume One, as one of the 20 best short stories in science fiction published prior to the Nebula Award. The story was first published in Star Science Fiction Stories No.2. The story was adapted in 1961 into an episode of The Twilight Zone.

Cheers
