Maybe you can lead with that, read more and write more. Sure, "reading" might not be a resume feature, and your "writing" might not be about anything to advance yourself in the workforce, but the act itself pushes your forward and can even clarify your own path. Anything from freewriting, purely associative and nonsensical to anyone but yourself to actually writing to communicate to others. Better than grinding against something you're unhappy with.
Exactly, if you like reading and writing you should do that, even if it is a longer game. I know immediate results are what we want, but imagine the horrror of you being hired for a programming job because it was on your resume ๐Ÿซ 
I do wonder if programming and stacking shelves paid the same and had the same social status. How many people would choose to stay being employed as a programmer?
