I was ravaging my mind for a solution when I lost hope and thought I may as well under promote and sacrifice it. It was only then that I abruptly realised the correct moves to ensue.
A fresh new take on an old idea! Outstanding!
14Ne4 also wins
Again Santiago, great puzzle. Do I dare ask...did YOU compile or make up the puzzle? It wouldn't surprise me if you did. I'm sorry that I haven't been on the "SKYPE" track with you. Chess has not been a priority as of late. Honestly though, I do look forward to playing chess with you. Hope all is well with you Santiago, and you are enjoying life. ~Michael~

I checked a few chess databases, and this is indeed an original problem as far as I can tell.

The OP doesn't present it as an original and the idea is not new. I've seen several very similar constructions.

I'm well aware that this scheme of promoting to knight many times for sacrifice to avoid stalemate has been done before. I more meant "original" as "not stolen."
OK! 
I don't think he stole it either; I don't even think he claimed it as an original.

It came up on a live puzzle battle show the other week with Danny Rensch and (as I recall) Robert Hess. It is excellent.
Ah, it's a retweet 
I agree it's lumberjack beauty. Lots of wood involved. Nice touch is the black queen promotion. A minus is the ambiguous journey of the checkmating knight. Still a joy for all stallion fans!

Place the 8 Queens on the board
Such that no Queen can capture any other Queen
