Is there a viable endgame strategy if you are the king vs a king and queen.

Play very fast and hope that your opponent runs out of time. Also hope for a dumb stalemate.

Try to stay away from the edges of the board. Alternate between diagonal and orthogonal king moves in order to confuse your opponent and cause them to waste time. When pushed to the edge, move to the corner away from the opponent’s king as fast as possible so that your opponent may accidentally stalemate your king on the corner.

Make the opponent lose his time, and pray

You will get a draw if you are playing me.

 Stay in the middle of the board. Look for stalemate possibilities. Pray.

 You should learn how to win this.

Either resign or play hopelessly to checkmate. Why hope for a dumb stalemate?

If you're the actual king, and not one of the players, probably the only hope is to try to seduce the enemy queen.

Impossible as it is fairly is easy to force a lone king to the corner of a board with a queen. :.(
