Google "devanagari script" or something along those lines, and you should get a result for "Hindi script tutor" which is what I used to learn to write Hindi. It's very useful, and even helps you with pronunciation of some of the phonemes that are foreign to English speakers, like the retroflexes and all that.
And if you find anything else, let me know... I had a little book I found at the bookstore for Hindi, but resources are scarce, at least at actual stores.
I tried www.livemocha.com for both Spanish and French, and other than the fact that I didn't have the time to spend concentrating on it, it seems to be a great website. I didn't get very far with the spanish, but what I did learn, I still remember over a year later. I liked it, and would definitely carry on with it if I had the time to spend on it (I'm learning Portuguese in university this year, and I expect I'll have to rely on livemocha afterwards to continue unless there's a higher level course next year, which is unlikely).
Edited to add that I think Livemocha has been mentioned before, because I'm pretty sure this was where I heard about it.
One thing you can do is download the scripts here (I've used them for years on multiple computers so they're safe). You can copy things over from books (just for your own personal use) and increase the font size until you can read it easily enough. One thing you should absolutely NOT do is try to cheat when you're just learning the script and write it in the alphabet you're used to reading. It'll just make internalizing the script take longer
