Fun fact: page A20 of today’s New York Times features an illustration that I did for the letters column. It’s my first illustration to appear in the paper — not that I really consider myself an illustrator, but I did study the trade at art school, so I’m pretty happy when I can provide some resolution to those hopeful early years of dreaming about appearing in the Times. This piece accompanies reader letters responding to an article that ran on 18 Mar about 
Very nice — congrats.
Wow. I was just closing down NYT.com earlier today when I saw this illustration and it actually made me retype the url just to see it again. Very interesting — glad to see you’re behind it!
Nice work Khoi. I can’t imagine how awesome that is to have something published/printed in the Times… congrats!
Smart idea. Love it! I been surfed on your weblog for years but this is my first time to leave message.
Congratulations! Nice simple & clear illustration.
Saw it and thought it was brilliant. Good one!
Spot on! Well Done.
I came across your website a few years ago and I’ve always been impressed that you’ve maintained the elegant design–there’s none like it. Very inspiring indeed. Nytimes.com is my favorite website, not so much for reading stuff in it, but more the layout of the site itself–just beautiful; even the ads throughout are unobstrusive.
Fitting illustration by the way!
Congratulations. Very nice.
