About this site

Independent Publishing for Worlds That Endure

AlaniaPress.com is the official home of A.H. Lewis — author, illustrator, designer, and world-builder — and the publishing imprint behind The Chronicles of Durajan, a multi-book epic fantasy series.

This site was created to support the independent release of The Chronicles of Durajan and to provide readers with deeper insight into the world, characters, and creative vision behind the series. It also houses The Making of Meaning, a blog documenting the creative process, philosophical underpinnings, and behind-the-scenes work that fuels both the story and the author’s broader journey.
