iMessage issue

I have an iPad Pro(2nd gen on iOS 11) & use it via Wifi. I've signed into iMessage and am attempting to send a message to my phone. I type in the phone #, then the message, but when I click the send arrow.. nothing happens. Do I need to have a phone number associated with my iMessage to send a message to a phone number?

iPad Pro Wi-Fi, iOS 11.1

Your iPad cannot send SMS messages unless it's paired to a companion iPhone through continuity. So either way, what you're trying to do won't work.
