A Journey of Love, Loss, Resilience, and Redemption Through Poetry and Prose

Brooklyn, NY — July 2025 — G-Square Publishing is proud to announce the release of This Is Me! by Rita D. Harris-Green, a stirring and courageous memoir-in-verse that pulls back the curtain on love’s triumphs and tragedies, the weight of addiction, and the healing power of memory.
This Is Me! is more than a book—it is a raw, unflinching testimony of survival, self-worth, and unwavering hope in the face of loss.
Through a tapestry of poems, personal letters, and intimate reflections, Harris-Green tells the story of her life with her late husband, Terrance Robert Green, whose battle with heroin addiction transformed their love, their family, and their future.
Written in the first person, this remarkable work allows readers to walk alongside the author as she recalls the sweetness of young love, the quiet joy of family life, and the storm that addiction brought to her door.
Rita doesn’t shy away from the pain—she meets it head-on with courage, grace, and a pen that never wavers.
“This is not just my story—it’s the story of every woman who has held on when it hurt, who stood tall when the world tried to knock her down, and who loved even when it meant breaking.”
— Rita D. Harris-Green

● A powerful preface by Vincent E. Green, illuminating the silent grief of families touched by addiction.

A letter from a child to an incarcerated parent that will linger in readers’ hearts long after the final page.
This book is for survivors. For lovers who lost. For children who waited. For families fractured and mended. For those who’ve walked through the fire and lived to tell the tale.
