This is a big step up from the last contrapuntal compositions I've heard of yours.
Pragmatically, I think the subject is slightly too long, but the counterpoint's interesting. It improves as the piece progresses. There are a few stylistic errors (mainly in melodic shaping), but over time these will probably be ironed out. I also think it's more of an invention than a fugue; two-voice fugues need to be incredibly well crafted in order to sound like fugues, and I think this sounds like more of an invention - perhaps fugato or fughetta as a halfway house.
