Vanity press



A vanity press or vanity publisher is a book printer which, while claiming to be a publisher, charges writers a fee in return for publishing their books or otherwise makes most of its money from the author rather than from the public. Jonathan Clifford claims to have coined the term in 1959 http://www.
