The only time this even becomes a question, is long into a series pub history before starting it.
I read many of the Pern (and many others) books in the pages of Analog (as a serial). (I was a subscriber from 1964-2004. My tastes shifted in different directions than the current editors. It was not a bad product, just no longer my cuppa )
Back then, there were not as many ways to discover new voices. Magazines and trad pub, were mostly it.
