自費出版
1. self-publishing; publishing at one's own expense
2. Vanity pressA vanity press or vanity publisher is a term describing a publishing house in which authors pay to have their books published. Publisher Johnathon Clifford claims to have coined the term in 1959. However, the term appears in mainstream U.S. publications as early as 1941. In contrast, mainstream publishers, whether major companies or small presses, derive their profit from sales of the book to persons other than the author.
