OP, I know you want career advice, but I just want to say that I think you're making the right move. I was at the same stage in an English literature PhD, fully funded, etc. I jumped ship and haven't looked back. It's very hard to make that move, because the deeper you are in it, the more you are just surrounded by people urging you to stay, who only know that world. It's an insane, precarious existence. For a lot of people it's just the epitome of the sunken costs fallacy ("only a few more years...") The funded MA a d teaching experience has occasionally come in handy... After bailing out, I joined the peace corps and managed to leverage the government hiring advantage to get a federal job. Not sure if that's the sort of course you want to pursue (no guarantees on fed jobs... they are notorious in their hiring practices).
