Here you go. According to this site your plant is merely going dormant and turning black is normal. "Venus flytraps purchased close to fall are sometimes entering their dormant period. Not long after purchase, the traps begin turning black, and the plant appears to be dying. Many plants are thrown away when they were simply entering dormancy".
Read this and it may help you.

You need to tear it all the way down so that some of the white rhizome comes off with it, and then plant it like another plant in the proper soil type. You need to do it with a healthy leaf though, not one that's about to die.
