This has an annoying feature of "bending" around curves of an object without me holding down and dragging the mouse. Is there anyway I can stop this from happening?
There are a few modes to the Bezier Pen, I'd set it to regular mode. http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL/html/Paths-Creating.html#Paths-Bezier
The pen tool is in regular mode
Before proceeding further, I'd reset the Preferences. https://inkscape.org/forums/questions/getting-back-to-square-one-and-starting-over-its-easy/
Don't worry, found a good tutorial how to use the Bezier curve
