Added DiffLines:
[[http://badinfluences.org.uk Bad Influences]] is a BlogFiction. It is told through a set of four interconnected character blogs.
It is a NearFuture DisasterFiction, set in 2026 (thirteen years in the future, at time of posting) and blogged in RealTime. It follows the devastating spread of a fatal pandemic flu virus. The story is told simultaneously from the viewpoint of four major characters from four distant corners of the world, and sometimes by their friends, family or random strangers who comment on their blogs. Readers are encouraged to sign up to participate in the comments in-character and become part of the story.
The four main bloggers are a group of friends who met on a conservation volunteer project in Vietnam a few months before the beginning of the story, and keep in touch through their blogs. [[http://brighterhorizon.wordpress.com Mei]] is an idealistic first year art student at Peking University, [[http://darthfarmboy.wordpress.com Jack]] is a comic artist and gamer living on his family’s farm in New Jersey, [[http://lonerlain.wordpress.com Elaine]] is a misanthropic supermarket greeter in Canberra and [[http://nursinggrievances.wordpress.com Ash]] is a nurse, husband, father and disillusioned ex-rebel in North London.
As each character's individual story unfolds, a fifth story emerges in the comments concerning their influence on one another and the nature of online friendship and communication.
