Awesome.

I want to say it reads: Mystery fantasy? Maybe a bit of adventure, and a mix of LitRPG? Am I close?

You're really hyping a story up that's not out yet. If it does not live up to the hype, you will be exposed to ridicule. However, it'll only last a few days, then people will forget about it.
Did someone say romance? ?
I swear, I could write a penguin samurai smut story where it's revealed the protagonist is a dodo, and you'd read it if I put a few romance chapters in it...

Every good story has one thing: violence.

Every great story has two things: violence and a chance for me to vicariously live out the fairytale romance I'll never have through my characters.
Well, that second one is true for quite a few authors.

? Sounds like we write the same stuff. I better see you channel your hopeless romantic side into the story when it comes out. I will forego my disinterest in LitRPG just for you.

I don't want to give away too much, but I'll tell you this: the whole story kicks off because Miranda (goat girl) misses her boyfriend Jeremy (Mr. Glowy) because he's been turned into a flesh robot, so she decides to bring him back and absolutely everything goes to hell because of it.

Fantasy litrpg with a heavy dose of romance. I guess you could say it's a mystery too, if you wonder why the world is the way it is.

World building is one of my favorite things.
But Romance sounds lovely!

Is the story already fully written offline, and planned for a schedule upload? or are you going to start writing it in a few weeks?

It's 99% donem I'm just editing and tweaking a few things. So I'll be uploading to a schedule: nine chapters on day one, one chapter per day for the next two weeks, then slow down to one chapter every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

I wish you luck on your analytics.

I'm confused, is donem a genre I'm not familiar with or just a typo? If it's the first, I ask you what it is. If it's the latter, I mock you for your incompetence with a keyboard, ignoring every typo I've ever made.

Yes, but don't ask what it is. Donem is one of the Ascended genres that can only be written by someone who has transcended the limits of the mortal mind. Attempting to read this genre with your pathetically miniscule understanding of the universe will only result in you losing your ability to read at all because itissima duma mudom, etluts sueh.

…to translate into English, it’s just a fun way of saying “done,” like “funsies” or “coolio”
