Greetings...
And welcome to The Kingdom, a fan collective of sorts revolving around Stephen King's novels and stories - a place where we can pool all of our crazy King-related fanworks and ideas (costumes, icons, fanfiction, fanart, etc.). So if you're a fan of the man, then please have a look around and enjoy yourself!

The Kingdom is owned/maintained by The Regulators and was created on October 5, 2007. You are reader number

to visit. All characters and works and such are © Stephen King and we're not making anything off of this -- it's just for fun!

version 2.0: This is the second layout of this collective and features Chester's Mill as seen on the gorgeous cover of Under the Dome. It was made with Photoshop 6.0 & notepad!

Updates

April 17, 2010: As you can see, we finally have a new layout! There have also been a few small content changes and some new things listed to the right! Check them out! Make sure you join the forum as well (click the banner above) -- we always need King fans there!

October 7, 2009; The Kingdom turned 2 years old the other day! We have joined a couple fanlistings relevant to our interests (and will be joining more soon). And we have a new little project that we're working on that is actually a mesh of two sites we've wanted to make. So we're hoping to have that up soon. :D

The Content

This is all the junk we have made, the sites we have created and the things we have worked on that relate to characters or stories and so on by Stephen King. We have been fans for awhile and are always looking for different ways to essentially geek out when it comes to said stories and characters. There will always be more things added! Keep an eye out!

Sites


Three Warnings -- a fansite and the TFL approved fanlisting for The Long Walk.


Boo'ya Moon -- the TFL approved fanlisting for Lisey's Story.


Steel Machine -- a dressing room/roleplay livejournal community. Kind of like all the King characters pick up a journal, join this community and go crazy. Join if you'd like!


Empty Devils -- Pictures inspired by the novels and stories, as well as pictures of King costumes!


 

Graphics

Icons - In our spare time (and usually at highly random intervals), we find ourselves making icons for message boards and places like livejournal. If you're looking for King related icons, then this just might be your place.

And here are a few wallpapers for desktops! As you can see from posts on the board, different journals and dorkiness from us in different places, we like to cast King books that haven't been made into movies yet (or heck, even if they have) so if you're wondering why a wallpaper has pictures of people you have never seen in any King adaptation ever (ex: Lisey's Story wallpaper) that was us and our casting habit shining through. Hehe~

Stand By Me --


1024x768 // 800x600
 

Lisey's Story --


1024x768 // 800x600
 

Coming Soon

The Dish Rag -- a recipe blog from a resident of Castle Rock herself!

Untitled -- a travel site for the state of Maine and all the Kingverse-related places to see while there.
 

About TK

In the fall of 2007, both of us realized how crazy obsessed we were getting with our King books. We couldn't wait till we could get our hands on one we hadn't read yet or a new one was coming out (we foamed at the mouth for Duma Key) -- so we figured we'd channel all of our crazy energy into something creative and The Kingdom was born. :D

It started out with the old board (that was strictly a King board and we have since shut down), because we had the urge to roleplay as a bunch of King characters with a crazy little storyline and then we kept getting all these other ideas for sites and fanworks and such. We took our favorite King characters as aliases on the site here and continue to add and grow this little garden of oddness. So keep an out for all the crazy things we'll be coming up with here!
