Is the Apple Pencil glitching or malfunctioning?

When I am writing in OneNote with my apple pencil will add extra lines and markings when my hand is against the screen. I tried closing the program and restarting the device. It doesn’t appear to be only in this one app since it seems to glitch when I’m also writing on the Internet browser bar with the pencil too.

iPad Pro, iPadOS 15
