I'll be adding them to my site, along with some other annotations of
Worm from a kind soul who passed them along. I've got a few leads on
some mentions of Eddison by friends in letters, etc., I'll be looking
into seeing how substantial they are, and will put up anything
interesting I find.
But the big project I'm working on is a gazetteer of the world of
Worm. No one to my knowledge has done any substantial geographical or
biographical surveys. It'll be done Real Soon Now.
