H.D. Campbell has over thirty years of writing experience with credits in freelance newspaper reporting, personal fiction, and poetry. Starting his career in St. Louis, H.D. Campbell published his first piece at ten with a poem published in a national magazine. That continued with writing personal fiction writing every chance he got. By the time he finished high school, H.D. Campbell had notebooks full of stories he was ready to publish. He co-founded The St. Louis Creative Black Writer's Guild in college, which lasted five years. It was an organization where writers networked and inspired each other through guest speakers, trips to bookstores, and critique sessions. During and after college, he wrote freelance for various newspapers and publications.

H.D. Campbell is also a freelance writer and professional editor. He creates book trailers, press kits, promotions, and other services to assist other writers and authors in editing and promoting their work.

H.D. Campbell also produces a show on his YouTube (H.D. Television) called The Author's Corner w/H.D. Campbell. The show is filled with news, interviews, and inspiration for authors and aspiring writers. The show debuted on August 4, 2009, and has expanded from a once-a-month series into a weekly series.

The Author’s Corner is the first of many shows coming out on the H.D. Television YouTube channel. He's producing new shows and many events for other authors under his umbrella. His newest show, The Artsts' Corner (for artists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more) was started in 2023. In addition, in 2024, H.D. started a video blog called My Weekly Gripe where he talks about topics such as current events, politics, relationships and more. In addition, in 2025, H.D. started Mental Health Mondays where he talks about topics of the mind and heart for everyone to be okay. Finally, there will be author tutorial specials in addition to news and political specials.

He started Hard Drive Publishing in 2015 where he now gives authors a chance to run their own destinies. In 2025 and beyond, Hard Drive Publishing will now push authors into a new direction. That came just in time because around that time the publishing company H.D. Campbell published under folded and he had to buy back all of the rights to his titles. H.D. Campbell then took his books off the market and will now start re-releasing them under the Hard Drive Umbrella. They will all be released between 2025 and 2027 with new releases coming in between.

The purpose of publishing and the Author's/Artists' Corner is to help fellow authors get to the top.

"I believe life is too short for competition. I do the show and the business not only to benefit me but also to introduce other authors. There's enough room at the top of the Best Seller list for everyone."
