A crazy idea: Take some sound recording device, walk for an hour in a forest an tell the story to the device. At home, rewrite the recording to text.

Why? At the forest you will have no distraction, and at home, the distraction will have smaller impact on transcribing than it would have on thinking plus writing. Also the impossibility of editing on the sound recorder will make you move forward faster. You can edit later (you should anyway).

There's an App called "Rev" where you can get it transcribed very cheaply.
