About Live More
Live More is a small series about reclaiming attention, calm, and the hours that actually make a life. The first book is Scroll Less, Live More — the digital-detox book that comes with the toolkit.
About Avery Parker
Avery Parker is a writer and builder who tends to run more than one project at a time — books, maker work, systems, the next idea that will not wait politely in line. That habit is a gift until it isn’t: the feed is engineered for people who already have too many open loops. Variable reward does not just steal evenings; it freezes the very projects that made you open the laptop in the first place.
Doomscrolling became impossible to ignore in that context. Not as a moral failure — as a trap that shows up when curiosity and ambition are already loud. Scroll Less, Live More grew out of an effort to stay in motion: audits, escape drills, and daily systems so attention stays available for the work and people that matter, instead of dissolving into “just one more scroll.” The book is practical on purpose — written for readers who still need technology to live and work, and who refuse to be paralyzed out of the next idea.
His books and series live at averyjparkerbooks.com. Maker and systems work lives at averyjparker.com. This site stays intentionally narrow: one Live More home, no content mill, companion tools that match the manuscript.
On live-more.co you’ll find the free Digital Baseline, a Dopamine Dependency Score (a behavioural honesty check — not a medical diagnosis), a 24-Hour Liberation Party planner, the Daily Freedom Stack, and a Phoenix Protocol for the inevitable slip — all at /tools/.
On the science metaphor: the book uses “dopamine casino” language as a usable model for variable-reward checking. The neuroscience is more nuanced; the tools target the behavioural pattern — cues, intermittent reward, and the thumb that moves before you decide.
