Fountain pens are not going to be as smooth as the Uniball Impact, which is a rollerball and is extremely slippery. So I guess your pen should be alright. Look at the nib and see if the two tines are misaligned. If not then your pen is okay for writing. As for storage, the only way I don't store it is with the nib pointing upright. I like to have the ink supply feed the nib at all times, so that the nib does not dry out and I can use the pen instantly when uncapped.
