While Donald Camp is the author's legal name, he is known by most everyone as Steve Camp. To complicate things even further, he writes, using a pen name, "Steven Howard" (in homage to his mother). The author has a master's degree from the school of hard knocks, having journeyed through despair and addiction into recovery. His personal, inner journey took him through rejections, failures and a dark circuitous route as he sought to discover the Truth of his being. Unknowingly guided by a Divine Force, the way was made clear through the support of a 12-step recovery program and years of therapy. He has a master's degree in Counseling Psychology and over forty-five years as a student and teacher of metaphysical teachings. He lives with his wife, Paula, in Central Florida.
