Mainstream won't touch you--despite their claims to the contrary.

80% of their submissions are agented, so there is little chance you can get through them on a rainy day--say in the next 10-15 years.

And their sub guidelines are mostly outdated by the time the next Writer Market book comes out--which means what you submit may not be what they want.

Your best bet is to try a small press or medium press publishing house. And if all else fails, you can try self-publishing it yourself. But get it edited *professionally* and AVOID the stigma of going to a vanity house like Publish America and Lulu.com

I use the "2005 Writer's Market" for listings of everything from book publishers and agents to magazine editors and scholarship contests.
There is also a "Writer's Market" book that is specifically for the novel writer. This would be what I would suggest in your situation.
They have the 2007 edition for sale, I am just to cheap to get the updated version every year.
I hope this helps.
