English department MFA student Vondell (Von) Jones was recently published in a special edition of “Your Royal Wedding,” an anthology of stories and comments printed in Great Britain.
Von’s short story, titled: “Sic Transit Gloria Mundi,” was published in August, 2011 as part of a compilation of poems, fiction, illustrations and non-fiction reports solicited from writers around the world, said editor and publisher, Louis Gibney. The anthology was assembled to commemorate the fairytale romance and marriage of Prince William and Kate Middleton on April 29, 2011. The royal couple’s wedding generated global attention and interest.
“Von’s story was quite good and brought a significant perspective to an event that captivated millions of people,” Gibney said. Writers from distant places such as South Africa, Australia, Ireland, Canada, and the United States submitted their work. Copies of the publication, which is being sold primarily in the United Kingdom, can be purchased on line at: www.facebook.com/louise.gibney.writer
Von Jones is a published journalist and former staff writer for Hearst, Scripps-Howard, and Gannett newspapers. His fiction writing has appeared in publications in Utah, California, and Oregon.

Congratulations Von! You're such a good writer, I hope I get to read it soon. And, by the way, your email address doesn't work anymore, could you send me your new one?
