Good to be here. I have 80k words - you could even call it a novel if you were kind - and I hope to work out what to do with them (or it).

It’s Beauty and the Beast with office technology instead of magic. Bel gets a job with a boss who is a tech millionaire but will not let anyone see him. She has to carry a kind of tablet through which he can interact with people. A complicated relationship develops and... well, you know roughly how the story goes!Hi Peter, welcome aboard!
What kind of them (or it) are your 80k words?

Hi Peter and welcome to the Colony. You'll find lots of helpful advice here, as well as a great opportunity to network with fellow writers. I also work as an editor so if you need some help, just drop me a PM.
Sounds like an intriguing concept!

Welcome to the Colony, Peter. My first draft completed at 46,000 words. After some revision it had increased to 55K. A year later the word count had climbed to 76K and, after some major editing, now sits at 62,000 words.

In fact, there was a colossal iceberg behind me, which we were about to hit. What a day that was!
....and you lived to talk about it. Awesome.
