Fossil? No clue what this is

Rediscovered this interesting piece while doing some deep cleaning today! Found this in Northern Arizona, on the Mogollon Rim. I am very new to fossils, not a huge enthusiast but I love collecting interesting rocks and things that I find camping. Does anyone know what this is? Not sure if you can tell from the pictures, but it's sparkly, too.

To me, it looks a bit like part of a septarian nodule/concretion.

Not a fossil, but a cool looking rock.  :)

Thank you for the replies! Bummer it wasn't a fossil, but now I'm even more determined to find something on my next camping trip!
