8 Queens stalemate

So this is actually an old chess puzzle that should be rightfully introduced every few years.

The goal is to move the pieces from left to right in such a manner that you eventually create a stalemate.  The only caveat I add is that C8 or F1 Queen doesn't move (its the fourth to move) and don't try to take anything. Just move the pieces up or down.  The Kings don't move (start on the c file).

    As an addendum: the goal is also so that no piece can directly attack another piece.  Good luck (If you can see this you are GM material)!
