In a recent interview, Franklin reveals the role imagination played during his younger years as he grew up "playing with G. I. Joes and imagining their lives.  Building sci-fi forts from cardboard boxes and bricks, drawing control panels on the walls, etc.  I liked creating the forts more than I did playing in them.  There was something wonderful about making something tangible, something others could see, participate in.  Then I moved to drawing my own comic books.  I loved comic books–Marvel, DC.  I collected them and had a couple of thousand of them.  I drew one sci-fi comic book (a rip-off of Space 1999 and BattleStar Galactica) that numbered up to like 24 or 25.  I was serious about it.  Then I started writing barbarian stories.  I loved Tarzan and Conan the Barbarian and so wrote a lot of bad imitations of those."

I hated math, [and] failed algebra twice."

Dyssemia is a difficulty with receptive and/or expressive nonverbal communication.  The word comes from the Greek roots "dys" (difficulty) and "semia" (signal).  The term was coined by psychologists Marshall Duke and Stephen Nowicki in their 1992 book, "Helping The Child Who Doesn't Fit In", to decipher the hidden dimensions of social rejection.  These difficulties go beyond problems with body language and motor skills.  Dyssemic persons exhibit difficulties with the acquisition and use of nonverbal cues in interpersonal relationships.  "A classic set of studies by Albert Mehrabian showed that in face-to-face interactions, 55 percent of the emotional meaning of a message is expressed through facial, postural, and gestural means, and 38 percent of the emotional meaning is transmitted through the tone of voice.  Only seven percent of the emotional meaning is actually expressed with words."  Dyssemia represents the social dysfunction aspect of nonverbal learning disorder.
