c - How to write recursive function that copies a string to a location?

any ideas about how to write a RECURSIVE function that gets 2 parameters :
first is an address d (a location of char).
second is a string.
The function copies the string s to a location starting at d.
The function returns d as a result !
can we do it without strcpy ?

    copy_r(char *s, char *d)
{
    *d = *s;
    if(*s)return copy_r(++s, ++d);
}

where is the mistake ? (found )
put still there is a problem ! what if the location d overlaps some location that is already occupied by s ?
this for example
strcpy(p1, "abcdefghijklomopqrstuvwqyz"); printf(copy_r(p1, p1+10));doesnt work –

output should be klomopqrstuvwqyz
