Meet the people behind your book
Hi, we're
Anthony & Elle.
Before we talk about publishing,
we want to hear about your book.
Why this story? Who do you hope it helps? What do you want it to feel like when someone opens it?
We’re authors, too. We know how personal it is to put your words into the world. We take time to understand what matters to you, then lead the work to bring it together.
You bring the heart behind the book. We bring the editing, design, review, and publishing help. You stay part of the choices that make it yours.

Is your book a fit? Let's talk ↗Published by Rev 1211
From our authors.
Different stories. Different voices. The same care for the book each author wanted to share.
Christian living, ministry, testimonies, and books for families.
Why we built Rev 1211 Publishing House
For Christian authors who know their story could help someone—and don’t want it to stay an unfinished dream.
You may be writing about what God brought you through, sharing what you’ve learned, or leaving something your family can hold onto.
Rev 1211 Publishing House was built to help you take that next step, with people who listen, care about your faith, and know how to turn your words into a finished book.
Here’s the support we bring to your bookLight Editing
We fix small errors in spelling, grammar, and punctuation. Your story should still sound like you.
You can see the difference here. Small errors are fixed; the author’s message stays the same.
- Fix small writing errors
- Tidy words that are hard to follow
- Keep your voice and meaning
If your book needs a big rewrite, we talk about that work and its cost first.

YOUR WORDS / SMALL EDITS
BEFORE THE EDIT
Their were moments when I felt alone, but Gods faithfulness never changed.
I learned to trust Him one day at a time.
Show the light edit
What we would check
“Their” should be “There.” “Gods” needs the possessive apostrophe.
Made-up example to show the work.
Scriptural & Biblical Citation Review
You get a report that shows what needs a closer look and why.
Does a verse number point to the wrong words? Does a quote match the Bible? Has a verse been used to mean something else? We look for these issues and for teaching that goes against the Christian faith.
We show you what we found. You can make the changes, or we can help with the agreed fixes. Our team checks the work before it is approved.

- What may be wrong, and why

YOUR WORDS / BIBLE CHECK
BEFORE THE EDIT
As Hezekiah 3:16 says, “God helps those who help themselves.”
His grace comes after we prove ourselves worthy.
Show the suggested fix
Report finding / citation & meaning
There is no Book of Hezekiah in the Bible. The saying is not Scripture, and the explanation presents grace as earned.
Suggested action: Remove the false citation and explain grace using a relevant passage such as Ephesians 2:8–9.
Made-up examples. The suggested fixes explain Bible teaching in our own words.

Try this invented example, then compare it with the sample findings.
INVENTED DEMONSTRATION PASSAGE · NOT SCRIPTURE
As reminds us, Before we can receive God's grace,
Select the parts you would question, then reveal the findings.
Sample manuscript review / 3 findings
Familiarity is not verification.
01 / FALSE REFERENCE
“Hezekiah 3:16”
Hezekiah is a biblical figure, but there is no Book of Hezekiah in the Bible. This reference cannot support the statement.
Action: Remove the invented citation.
02 / MISATTRIBUTION
“The Lord helps those who help themselves.”
This saying is not a Bible verse. Here it is misleadingly presented as a quotation from Scripture.
Action: Remove the scriptural attribution and review whether the statement fits the intended teaching.
03 / DOCTRINAL CONCERN
“We must first become worthy of it.”
This presents grace as dependent on first earning worthiness. Compare the teaching with Ephesians 2:8–9, which describes salvation by grace through faith rather than works.
Action: Revise the explanation and verify its wording in context.Illustrative report created for this demonstration. Individual manuscript findings will vary.
Integrity Report
Your report helps you fix the book. The public page helps readers learn about it. It explains the Christian message, Bible use, and any content they should know about.
A reader can scan the code on the book to open the page. This helps parents, churches, and bookshops see what we checked.
The short note on the book says: “Content reviewed for alignment with the Christian faith. Scan for the full review.”

Custom Front & Back Cover Design
You have a feeling in mind for your book. We turn it into a cover that gives readers a reason to pick it up.
From the first look to the words on the back, the whole cover should feel like it belongs to your story.
We explore the look with you, refine the details, and prepare the agreed files for print.
Interior Formatting
Open a book you love. The space, the type, the way a chapter begins: it all helps you settle in. We give your pages that same care.
We shape the pages around how your book will be used, from a quiet Bible study to a story read aloud with a child.
- Clear text and chapter pages
- Pictures and page numbers in place
- Files ready for the agreed book formats
Back-cover copy
What goes on the back?
The back cover helps a reader think, “This book might be for me.”

An ISBN is the number stores use to tell one book and format from another.
We put the number in the right places, including the book and its store records.
Book Distribution
We handle your book’s setup for Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, and Indigo. You do not have to work through the Indigo submission yourself.
Our team submits the Indigo listing and handles the book details needed for that setup.
Through IngramSpark, your book can be made available for ordering across a wide network of bookshops, online stores, and libraries.
Distribution makes a book available to order. Retailers choose their listings and what they stock on shelves.

“Metadata” means your book's details: the title, author name, description, topics, and search words.
We write and choose those details so readers can see what your book is about.
This helps stores sort the book and helps readers search for it. It does not promise a top search spot.

Advertising & Marketing
Can we build interest before your book is out?
People can learn about your book before it is ready to buy.
We build a book waitlist page and run the paid ads in your plan.
The ads help people find the book. The page lets them sign up to hear when it is out.
Your plan lists the ad spend, dates, and launch emails. Rev 1211 manages the Book & Blessing reader list.
Explore the live Find Jesus waitlist page ↗Ads help people see the book. The number of sign-ups and sales can vary.

Let’s talk about your bookThe cost
What do most authors spend publishing with Rev 1211 Publishing House?
We’ll talk about the help you need and give you a written price for your book.
The average author spends
$2,499 USD
with us to bring their book to life.
Your price depends on the work you choose. You keep your book, and Rev 1211 takes 0% of your author royalties. Store and print fees still apply.
Before we talk
A few things you may
be wondering.
Does my book need to be finished?
No need to guess. Tell us where you are. We can talk about what is needed next. A rough draft may need more work than a finished book.
What kind of publisher is Rev 1211?
We are a Christian publishing house. You pay us for the work in your plan. We review the book and approve it before it is published under our name.
Do you take a percentage of my royalties?
We take no cut of your author royalties. Stores, printers, and other book services have their own fees. Those fees affect how much money is left from each sale.
How involved will I be?
You help shape the book and review the key parts. Our team leads the work and checks it before approval. We tell you when we need your input.
What is the difference between my report and the public review?
Your report shows things to fix before the book is out. The public page tells readers about the finished book and what we checked. They can scan the code on the book to see it.
How do you use AI?
AI is one of our tools. It can offer design ideas, suggest a small edit, or point out something to check. Our team reviews the work and makes the final call. We can explain how it would be used for your book.
Who owns the cover, and how are my files kept?
We can explain which images and tools we plan to use and how we handle your book files. Being allowed to use an image is not the same as owning its copyright or having the only copy. In the U.S., images made only by AI usually do not have copyright protection. Work added by people may be protected. Your agreement sets out the rights you receive.
What happens on a publishing call?
We listen to what your book is about, who it is for, and why you want to share it. You can ask questions. Then we talk about whether we can help and what comes next.
