Resume Advice

[Evelyn Lee Barney <evbarney -at- comcast -dot- net>]

I hope this is reasonably on-topic. 

I have a soft money job - which I happen to love.  There is a chance of 
making it more permanent - and with significantly more money.  The 
challenge is to help the people I work directly with to convince their 
colleges - who have seen my work but don't really know me.

While I do some straight tech writing for these people, they refer to me 
as their "web developer" - which has meant more hours that I can tell 
you hacking my way though projects that I really didn't have the skills 
for when I began.  Thankfully I work mostly form home so I get to cuss, 
kick and start over as often as I need without anyone the wiser. I've 
become a quick learner.

Now, to the question:  I have to update my resume.  No decision will be 
made until December, but the resume goes in next week.  Between now and 
December, I will have added improved skill with digital photography, and 
familiarity - if not proficiency, with Drupal, Java, and 3D computer 
modeling to my list of skills. Is there a way to gracefully express that 
on the resume?  The Drupal is most important, since some of the people 
involved in the choice are  committed to that CMS.

Any advice will be welcome!
