Mid-Atlantic. This is what everyone calls a Philadelphia accent although it's also the accent of south Jersey, Baltimore, and Wilmington. Well, everyone that lives near there, that is. Outsiders can tell you talk differently from them even though they can't tell what your accent is.
If you are not from there, you are probably one of the following: (a) A New Yorker who, unlike most New Yorkers, rhymes "on" with "dawn"; or (b) A Yat from New Orleans. You are probably not from Eastern New England or the Great Lakes area, and certainly not from anywhere in the West or Canada.
as long as I don't have the accent that suggests illiteracy
Hey! If you want to get together sometime over the weekend/Holiday, We'd love to see you. Our schedule is pretty open and we're going to a friend's party on Monday that you'd be welcome to attend.
