I wouldn't be too worried about following established canon. Just pick someplace you like or are interested in weave in what you've read make up the rest. Getting something into publishable format is worth more than scholarship. Sometimes a chance reference or comment in one of the digests can spark something akin to creativity. I made up my vision of an entire society living under Valind's Glacier based on such a comment. (See http://www.geocities.com/bernuetz/regions/lodriland.html if you're interested). Obviously it draws quite a bit from official sources as well. It's probably not what someone else would do but it's more or less complete. Never did use it though.
