Reaching out with a gentle reminder that Wednesday July 13 is the last day of the Grandiloquent Word of the Day 2027 Calendars campaign.

Sesquipedalian menologies filled to the brim with grandiloquent words, vintage illustrations, celestial details, holidays both beloved and bizarre...plus delightful extras including bookmarks, bookplates, and signed hardcover books by yours truly are awaiting your click! 

If you've already backed us - thank you for your gracious support. And if you haven't yet secured your rewards, don't miss out on the opportunity to do so at our special Kickstarter pricing...

We are jubilantly excited to create these treasures for you!

Greetings, grandiloquent friends!

We hope everyone is having a splendid week so far. As for us - we are celebrating that at the time of this writing, the 2027 Grandiloquent Word of the Day Wall Calendar Campaign is 96% funded thanks to your generous support. You are truly the most magnificent of the munificent!

We are extravagantly excited to manifest these 2027 calendars for you. If you haven't yet pledged, may we proffer the kindly suggestion to treat yourself! These sesquipedalian menologies are a wonderful way to start each day with delightful words and holidays, and they make most welcome and unique gifts. We also have a lovely selection of additional rewards for your delectation and delight. 

Thank you ever so much for helping us reach our 11th anniversary of creating Grandiloquent Word of the Day Calendars for you, our beloved grandiloquent community!

Kindest regards,

The 2027 Grandiloquent Word of the Day Wall Calendar Campaign
about 1 month ago – Thu, Jun 25, 2026 at 04:35:13 PM

Greetings, grandiloquent friends!

With no small measure of jubilation and a veritable flourish of lexicographical confetti, we are delighted to announce that the Kickstarter campaign for the 2027 Grandiloquent Word of the Day Wall Calendar is now live!

This marks our eleventh year of creating calendars for our beloved community of logophiles, bibliognosts, word-collectors, phrase-fanciers, and appreciators of splendidly unnecessary vocabulary. We are profoundly grateful that you have been part of this curious little adventure, and we would be honored to have you join us for another year of grandiloquent delights.

The 2027 wall calendar is once again brimming with remarkable words, curious holidays, seasonal observances, celestial details, and the sort of linguistic legerdemain that you've come to expect, making each month just a little more marvelous.

As always, early support makes an enormous difference on Kickstarter, so if you are inclined to pledge, share, cheer, or simply wave a handkerchief enthusiastically in our general direction, we shall be most grateful.

Thank you ever so much for helping keep Grandiloquent Word of the Day alive, thriving, and magnificently sesquipedalian.

As ever, I remain,

Jason T. Ott

Dear Grandiloquent Friends,

Sending all of you wonderful humans an update that rewards have been (and are still!) flying out the door. Our home is covered in boxes and envelopes and tape, and we couldn't be happier. We are delighted that we're on track with the promised fulfillment timing! 

Kickstarter backers - if you haven't received and completed a survey asking for your shipping details, please check for an email from Backerkit (this would have been sent in November). If you can't find it, please do let us know and we will be glad to re-send you the link.

Thank you all so very much - wishing you and yours the happiest of holiday seasons!

Jason T. Ott, Grandiloquent Word of the Day

Surveys are on the way!

Greetings grandiloquent friends,

We have just started the survey emailing process - huzzah! You will be receiving an email from BackerKit containing a link to a survey. This survey allows us to collect your shipping details if you have any physical rewards, choose reward options if applicable to your pledge, verify your email address for those in pledge levels with digital rewards only, and distribute links to the digital wall calendar PDFs. You can also purchase additional add-ons, if you would like (completely optional, of course). If you have any questions, there is a link for BackerKit Support in your survey, or you can always send us a private message on Kickstarter. 

We also have some delightful news to share. Thanks to your generous support, our stretch goal was met - huzzah! This means that everyone who chose a tier with physical rewards in the Kickstarter campaign will receive one of these splendid bookmarks. We appreciate you so much!

And one last happy update - we are still on track to meet our promised ship dates of December. 

Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend,

Jason T. Ott, Grandiloquent Word of the Day
