const player1 = {
    name: 'Ashley',
    color: 'purple',
    isTurn: true,
    play: function(){
        // write code here.
      if(this.isTurn){
        //this.name[this.name +" is now playing!"] //this is actually wrong, to have an array element, at this point
        return this.name + " is now playing!" //try this
        }
    }
