Cirque Journal has published my short story called Rolling Rock. This story was originally written in November of 2020. It was based on an amalgamation of stories various friends told me about their ageing parents. I first began trying to publish this story in March of 2021, after which it was rejected 16 times before being accepted by Cirque in June of 2025. This is my fifth time being published by Cirque. The story can be found via the below link. Just look for the title of the story or S.W. Campbell. I hope you enjoy reading it.
