If you like writing, could technical writing be an option? Writing documentation, user guides, API instructions, and so on - the field for technical writing is fairly broad. The audience doesn't have to be other technical users. The GOV.UK site has lots of posts from 'content designers' who write and research. Could this type of role appeal?
