About The Author

I wrote my book to show that I walk my talk. I’ve spent a decade supporting business owners to write and publish their own brilliant books, and my own book needed to be written too. I have a few strings to my professional bow, so narrowing down what to write about was probably the hardest job. I applied my mentoring to my own dilemma and You’re Booked! became a reality.

I am so incredibly proud of the book I created, extremely flattered by the reviews and responses it has received, and very happy it reached #1 in three Amazon categories.
I love working with ambitious coaches, experts, speakers and entrepreneurs to help create the most significant piece of marketing collateral for their businesses.

Get in touch if you want to see if your book idea is viable, and how it can fit into your marketing strategy.

Inspiring, practical and confidence-boosting—exactly what I needed to finally write my book!

When I first picked up You’re Booked!, I was overwhelmed by the idea of writing a business book that truly reflects my voice—yet also attracts clients and enhances my credibility. Clare McCabe’s guide is the business book-writing companion I didn’t know I was missing.

From the outset, Clare strikes the perfect balance between no-nonsense strategy and supportive encouragement. She gives you a clear, actionable plan for everything—from honing your unique message and structuring your content, to navigating publishing and launching your book as an effective marketing tool. It’s evident she’s “walking her talk”, offering everything she’d want as a writing buddy, designer, publishing mentor, and marketing strategist all rolled into one.

What I absolutely loved:

  • Clear, structured guidance — each step builds on the last, taking you effortlessly from idea to final manuscript. The advice on launching strategically to land on Amazon charts (and win clients in the process!) was especially empowering.
  • Authentic voice — Clare’s tone is both encouraging and refreshingly candid. It’s like getting expert advice from a supportive friend who genuinely wants you to succeed.
  • Real-world results — The testimonials from Clare’s clients (who experienced everything from seamless writing journeys to increased client attraction thanks to their books) were incredibly encouraging.

In short: You’re Booked! doesn’t just teach you how to write a book—it shows you why it’s the best marketing asset you’ll ever own. For business owners, coaches, consultants and ambitious entrepreneurs eager to share their expertise and attract the right clients, this book is a game‑changer.

If you’ve been sitting on your book idea, wondering if it’s worth it—this is the sign to get started. Five well-deserved stars!

Clare has demonstrated that technical books do not have to be boring.

Despite being a technical book, I found it easy to read, and in fact it only took me three hours to read.

I put that down to Clare’s easy style of writing. I have had dealings with Clare before, and the book truly reflects her personality. I look forward to the next product from Ms. McCabe.

A Must-Have for Any Aspiring author

I’d had an idea for a book for years. Every time I tried to start it, I’d get overwhelmed – was I doing it “right”? How would I even publish it?

You’re Booked! broke everything down into simple steps. I stopped worrying about perfection and just followed the plan. I now have a clear idea how to create my first draft. And I’m excited to not just start it but to finish it.

The best part? It’s not just about writing – it explains the publishing and marketing side too, which I’d been totally clueless about. I feel confident about my next steps now, and that’s worth more than I can say.

If you’re stuck, this is the book to get you writing.

This book is amazing! Not only does it fill you with the confidence you need to write a book but it feels human and as though you’ve got a wing woman sat there with you.

Clare’s personality and wealth of knowledge are both shown in this book and I would 100% recommend this to anyone who is even thinking about writing a book.

A must read for anyone wanting to write their own book

This is a brilliant book, very readable, easy to follow with a few laughs along the way. It is aimed at those who want to promote their business, get their ideas of what they do for others to follow, or to tell their life story.

It has a plan and prompts to follow with ideas on how to start writing, areas to cover through to publishing and marketing. It even gives advice on how to make your book a number 1 best seller.

If you’ve always wanted to write a book but no idea how to start or how to organise it, this is the book for you. Highly recommended.

Thank you so much for the motivation to get started on writing my book

I read You're Booked by Clare McCabe before I started writing my own book, From Rags to Stitches, and it really was the motivation I needed to get going.

I’d been thinking about writing for ages, but this book made it feel possible. It helped me get clear on who I was writing for and why — and that changed everything. Instead of feeling overwhelmed, I felt focused.

It’s practical, straightforward and encouraging without being pushy. No fluff, just solid advice that makes you think, “Right. I can do this.” And so I’ve started mine.

I’m planning to read it again as I work through my drafts because I don’t want to miss anything. Whether you’ve already started writing or are still just considering it, I’d definitely recommend it.

Thank you Clare for the motivation that I needed.
