Three Pantheons novel(SOLVED)

General
I'm kinda at a crossroads with this. Wanted to see what people thought.
See, I've been working on it for nearly 10 years, and I still don't feel comfortable with where it is. If I want to get to story 2, 3, 4, etc. I need to put it in the can eventually. I once had thoughts of trying to (self-)publish the book, but I'm beginning to think I should just finish the current draft, and put it on FA for enjoyment. I don't really need the money, and I'd rather it be read and those that enjoyed it to tip me.
So as I see it, I have a few options here.
1: Free publish on FA, a website, or similar.
2: Selfpublish on Amazon or such.
3: Submit for professional publication, and see what happens.
Honestly, I'm only thinking between one and two right now but if anyone can present a convincing argument for three, I'd love to hear it. What do you guys think I should do?

That said, a major flaw in any attempt to monetize this particular story has been pointed out to me, and thus I don't think I'll be able to sell it.
I'm sorry to hear about your story though. I honestly hate to see all that hard work not see any payout for you.
If you have a Paypal, ko-fi, or other similar tipping service, I would suggest you attach it to your story description so that way you may make at least a little bit of money. It's no guarantee but you might get a couple of bucks from fans who want to support you.
