Forgive me, but did you write this seven years ago? That seems to be what the title would suggest.
In terms of criticism, you've captured a the right sort of atmosphere in this composition, but more harmonic planning is required. It's all very well filling in the fugue subject and then contorting a harmony around it, but unless you've decided quite what chords it's implying, the general end-product is usually a dissapointing ramble through keys chosen more or less at random.The best way to do this would be to write the bass part immediately after filling in the relevant countersubject. That was how I did this little snippet, which I think is rather similar to this composition. I wrote it in an evening about a month ago, but never finished it.
I'd also note that in terms of structure it's very unusual to have the subject simultaneously in all voices until the final stretto passage, or at least until a final set of middle-entries.
