Now I'm curious what this 'right way' is ... I have known many people who have many different pencil grips, and have gone through an assortment of them myself, but never been told any of them were 'wrong.' 'Inefficient,' maybe, or 'too stiff,' but not outright objectively 'wrong.'
I have had times where I absolutely cannot draw without a pencil pillow, and other times where I really couldn't be bothered to care about it one way or another. I also remember the distress when I discovered I'd been working exclusively on a Cintiq for long enough that a regular pencil felt weird in my hand and I'd forgotten how to hold it comfortably.
