self-publish
Print without publishers
Self-publish means to publish your own work without going through a traditional publishing house.
The author handles or arranges editing, design, printing, and distribution: She self-published her novel through Amazon.
Self-publishing has become common with digital platforms that make it easy to produce and sell books, music, or other creative work independently.
