Okay, normally I'm the go to person for grammar, but this one eludes me. Is it "short-hand", "shorthand" or "short hand"?

I believe it's shorthand, but I could be wrong. Im not very grammatical, just a good speller.

shorthand if it's stenographic heiroglyphics, short-handed if it's an overworked work crew, short hand if it's mine trying to reach the backspace key

Thanks guys! Yeah, the sentence is "I wrote everything he said, shorthand, in my notebook."
